Download and Install the Java Agent from ZIP

You can download the Java agent by using the ZIP file:
  1. Download the Java Agent ZIP file from Splunk AppDynamics Download Center.
  2. Extract the ZIP file to the destination directory as the same user or administrator of the JVM.
    Note the following:
    • Extract the Java Agent to a directory that is outside of your container or application server runtime directories, such as to \usr\local\appdynamics\appagent .
    • All files should be readable by the user under which the JVM runs. The user must have write privileges to the conf and logs directories in the Java Agent home. One way to achieve this is to install the agent as the same user that owns the JVM or as an administrator on the host machine.
    • The Java Agent must have write access to the application server runtime directory.
