Discuss Cisco 500-430 Exam Topic 3 Question 26

The application server was restarted after an upgrade. What are two valid ways to confirm that the upgraded Java Agent is running successfully? (Choose two.)

AVerify that the application log contains a message indicating success.

BVerify that the node within the Controller Ul indicates the app agent is reporting.

CVerify the Java Agent Version metric for that node in the Metric Browser.

DVerify that the Java Agent log contains a message indicating the agent started successfully.

Suggested Answer: C

The REST query that could be used to verify the availability of an AppDynamics Controller is1:

http://<controller_host>:/controller/rest/ping

This query returns a simple text response of ''pong'' if the Controller is up and running, or an error message if the Controller is down or unreachable1.This query does not require any authentication or parameters, and can be used as a quick and easy way to check the Controller status1.Reference:Ping the Controller

I always check the Controller UI first, so B is my go-to!

I disagree, C is just as important as A and D.

Surprised that people overlook checking the logs. D is key!

Kimbery 11 months ago

I think B is also valid, but A is a must!

Julieta 12 months ago

A and D are definitely the right choices.

I think we should definitely check the Metric Browser for the Java Agent Version, but I’m not entirely sure if it’s one of the two best methods.

I feel like verifying the Java Agent log for a successful start message could also be valid, but I can't recall if it's the best option.

Gregg 1 year ago

I remember a practice question where we had to verify the agent's status in the Controller UI. That might be a good choice here.

I think checking the application log for a success message is definitely one way to confirm the agent is running, but I'm not sure about the second option.

Art 1 year ago

I'm feeling pretty confident about this one. Verifying the log messages and the agent reporting in the UI seem like the two best ways to confirm the upgrade was successful. I'll make sure to select those two options.

Fabiola 1 year ago

Okay, I've got this. The key is to look for confirmation in both the application log and the Controller UI. Checking the Java Agent log would also be a good way to verify it started up successfully.

Loise 1 year ago

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know we need to confirm the agent is running, but I'm not sure if checking the Java Agent version metric is a valid option. I'll have to think this through carefully.

Linsey 1 year ago

This looks straightforward. I'd start by checking the application log for any success messages, and then verify the agent is reporting in the Controller UI.

Lauran 1 year ago

Okay, I think I've got this. Open the message, click the message options dialog box launcher, select confidential sensitivity, and then send the message. Simple enough!

I'm just hoping the Java Agent doesn't try to take over the world after the upgrade. Can't be too careful these days!
