Issue/Introduction

We are facing huge issue with agent memory consumption. Due to this memory issue, we are trying to minimize the impact by filtering the application pools to be instrumented but it does not work. Once we set the property to any specific pool, none of the app pools are being monitored.

We tested with both APM 11.X and 21.X .NET Agents releases, and both agents are showing same issue.

Property:

introscope.agent.dotnet.monitorAppPools="NULL","DefaultAppPool","accounts.abc.def" 

The Example in the online Guide is:

introscope.agent.dotnet.monitorAppPools="NULL","DefaultAppPool","AppPool1","AppPool2"

Environment

Release : 21.X

Component : APM Agent

Resolution

Please use the property as follows:

introscope.agent.dotnet.monitorAppPools=accounts.abc.de,DefaultAppPool
