Environment

Application Performance Management 10.7/20.2

Cause

 

It describes a scenario using 20.2 agent with 10.7 Enterprise Manager

When the agent is downloaded it will automatically have the ws protocol in the connection string

agentManager.url.1=ws://<APM services gateway URL>

This denotes a websocket communication which is how 20.2 agent connects to DX APM 20.2 server

Resolution

 

For use with APM 10.7 Enterprise Manager, it is necessary to remove the ws:// at the front,

This is effectively the same connection string as when using a 10.7 agent.

The agent will then use the tcp protocol for direct socket communication.

 

agentManager.url.1=<EM host>:5001
