How to modify agent configuration for a specific Instance using apminsight.conf , without using Agent Configuration Profiles ?
For Java / Ruby / Node.js agents :
- During upgrade to build 15060, all existing Instance-level agent configurations would be moved to an Application-level common agent configuration profile.
- In order to maintain an agent config for a separate instance alone , it can be done by modifying or inserting the required required values from the below config keys in apminsight.conf file during the runtime of App/Agent .On every save of apminsight.conf file, with a new modified timestamp, the running agent re-initializes itself with the values from the apminsight.conf file and uses it.
Note : NO RESTART of the agent/application is required for this. The agent needs to be running when the below changes are made & saved. - Configurations that can be modified/inserted in apminsight.conf file:
- apdex.threshold=0.5
- sql.capture.enabled=true
- transaction.trace.enabled=true
- transaction.trace.threshold=2.0
- transaction.trace.sql.parametrize=true
- transaction.trace.sql.stacktrace.threshold=3.0
- transaction.tracking.request.interval=1
- To save the apminsight.conf file during agent runtime :
- Windows : Edit & Save the file. The timestamp should be modified.
- Linux : Use below command in the apminsight agent installation directory, if no changes are made, but timestamp needs to be modified.
- touch apminsight.conf
- The above needs to be done again, if the agent is ever restarted. Rest assured, the apminsight.conf file changes will NOT be overwritten automatically.
