Configure the .NET Machine Agent
Related pages:
The AppDynamics .NET Agent includes an embedded .NET Machine Agent that runs as part of the AppDynamics.Agent.Coordinator service. Among other things, the Machine Agent regularly gathers system performance data and reports it back to the Controller as metrics.
Note: Because the .NET Agent includes an embedded .NET Machine Agent, it consumes a Machine Agent license. Meaning that installing .NET Agent, consumes both one APM license, and one Machine Agent license.
The app agent MSI file and .NET Agent Configuration Utility automatically install and configure the .NET Machine Agent to connect to the Controller. The connection information is the same for the app agent and the .NET Machine agent. See Configure the .NET Agent.
To manage the .NET Machine Agent from the Controller, see 'Manage the .NET Machine Agent' on Monitor Windows Hardware Resources.
