Discuss Cisco 500-425 Exam Topic 4 Question 27

Which two reasons would cause an organization to upgrade AppDynamics agents? (Choose two.)

Aagent issues

Bdatabase issues

Capplication upgrade

Dnew features

Suggested Answer: A, D

According to the Upgrade the Java Agent document1, one of the reasons to upgrade AppDynamics agents is to resolve agent issues, such as bugs, performance problems, or compatibility issues with the Controller or the monitored application. Another reason to upgrade AppDynamics agents is to take advantage of new features, such as enhanced metrics, dashboards, alerts, or integrations, that are introduced in newer agent versions. Therefore, the correct answer is A and D. Database issues and application upgrade are not directly related to the agent upgrade, unless they affect the agent functionality or compatibility.Reference:

Agreed, A and D are the clear choices here!

Wait, are we really upgrading just for new features? Seems odd.

Lemuel 11 months ago

A and D make sense, but I wonder if B could be a factor too?

Ashanti 11 months ago

I think C is also a good reason, especially with major app changes.

Definitely A and D! New features are always a reason to upgrade.

I feel like database issues were mentioned in some of our practice sessions, but I’m not confident that’s a reason for upgrading agents.

Amber 1 year ago

Application upgrades might require agent upgrades too, but I can't recall if that's the main reason.

Quentin 1 year ago

I remember practicing a question about new features being a reason for upgrades. That seems right to me!

Floyd 1 year ago

I think agent issues could definitely be a reason to upgrade, but I'm not sure about the second one.

Phyliss 1 year ago

This is a good question. I'd say the two main reasons are agent issues, since you'd want to keep the agents up-to-date, and application upgrades, since that would likely require upgrading the agents as well.

I'm a bit confused by this question. Is database issues really a valid reason to upgrade the agents? That doesn't seem quite right to me. I'll have to double-check my understanding.

Skye 1 year ago

Okay, let's see. Agent issues and new features seem like the most likely reasons to upgrade the AppDynamics agents. I'll go with those two.

Eliz 1 year ago

Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. I know agent issues could be a reason, but I'm not sure about the other options. I'll have to think this through.

I've got this! Based on the information provided, the bank must conduct an annual review for Beta and Zeta to determine their continuing eligibility for exemption. Alpha's exemption is based on its stock listing, which doesn't require an annual review.

Wait, did they forget about B) database issues? That's where the real party's at! Just kidding, I'd go with C) and D) too.
