Issue/Introduction

The DevTest agent is not loaded with the application when starting from the command line.

Environment

All supported DevTest platforms.

Cause

Java requires the parameters on the command line to be in a certain order.

Resolution

The DevTest agent parameter must be the first parameter listed on the command line.

Example:

java -javaagent:<pathToAgent>InsightAgent.jar=name=<agentName>=url=tcp://<BrokerHost>:2009 MyProgram
or
java -javaagent:<pathToAgent>InsightAgent.jar=name=<agentName>=url=tcp://<BrokerHost>:2009 -jar MyProgram.jar

where:

<pathToAgent> = Fully qualified path to the DevTest agent jar files
<agentName> = Unique name for this agent. It will be displayed in the Portal.
<BrokerHost> = IP or Host Name where the broker is running.
