A .Net Agent (usually backend agents) sends excessive traces that are not for transaction tracing, sampling, auto tracing, etc.
Engineering has discovered an issue where upstream .NET agents triggers transaction traces in the downstream .NET agents, the agent propagate traces regardless of there is a tail filter or not when introscope.agent.transactiontracer.tailfilterPropagate.enable=true.
Normally you enable this feature on all the desired agents to include the backend trace data (for example, from the SYSVIEW extension)
This defect#DE250285 has been already fixed in 10.5.2.
From the upstream JVMs, you have 2 options:
Option 1) disable CPTT (cross-process transaction tracing)
Comment the below 2 lines in Webservices.pbd
TurnOn: WebServicesCorrelationTracing
TurnOn: WCFRuntimeTracing
Option 2) set introscope.agent.transactiontracer.tailfilterPropagate.enable=false
Restart the managed application for the changes to take effect
