Issue/Introduction

Have a scenario where an application is getting migrated which contains microservice code to PCF container where there will not be weblogic server in PCF. But still want to make use of Lisa agents to monitor and report the metrics from server side and Java virtualization.

Would like to know will Lisa agents will work without Weblogic server?

Can a Lisa agent be pushed to PCF without a weblogic server. If not Weblogic server, what can be the alternate approach in PCF?

 

Environment

All supported DevTest releases.

Cause

N/A

Resolution

Basically, you need to configure agent in startup script of the application server.

If moving to PCF, need to add agent configurations to startup scripts. There are several options to use/install java agent based on application server.

Refer to section "Java Agent Installation" in the documentation of the DevTest release you are running.
