Upgrade the Splunk AppDynamics Azure Site Extension

When you click the Extensions tab for your web app, the Microsoft Azure Portal displays the currently installed version of the Splunk AppDynamics Azure Site Extension. The Update Available column of the installed extensions list indicates if there is a more recent minor release of the Java Agent available. If so, you can click to update the extension from the list.

Splunk AppDynamics maintains major release versions of the Java Agent as separate site extensions. Therefore, you must uninstall the installed version of the Splunk AppDynamics Azure Site Extension before you upgrade to a new major release. To upgrade a major version of the Java Agent:

  1. Log in to the Windows Azure Portal.
  2. Stop your web app.
  3. Click the Splunk AppDynamics Azure Site Extension from the list of installed extensions and click Delete to uninstall it.
  4. Install the new version of the Splunk AppDynamics Azure Site Extension as normal.
