View and Monitor Events

You can view and analyze events in the Controller UI. From the Database Visibility, Server Visibility, or user experience application pages in the UI, you can view events by clicking Events from the left navigation tree.

Note: The Controller displays a subset of the types of events generated in Splunk AppDynamics. You can access additional event types through the REST API. See Splunk AppDynamics APIs.

To view events for application monitoring:

  1. Navigate to Events on any business application, business transaction, tier or node dashboard to view events generated in the selected time frame.
  2. Click Filters and select the type of event to display.
  3. Review information about an event If the event is an application change, such as an application restart, the details contain a description of the event. If the event is a slow transaction or an error, the details are transaction snapshots from which you can drill down to the root cause of the problem.
  4. From the Event Details dialog, right-click an event to start a war room, delete or archive the event, or test action execution.
