QuestionQ8

Agent Configuration and Installation

Which two statements are accurate when upgrading the Database Agent?

Choose two
  • A If the agent is moved to a new location during the upgrade, the AppDynamics Controller must be reconfigured to reference the new location of the agent.
  • B Controller-info.xml is the only file that needs to be migrated from the previous agent to the new agent.
  • C After the Database Agent is upgraded, the AppDynamics Controller must be restarted.
  • D The Database Agent must be stopped and restarted during the upgrade.
  • E All data collectors created from the previous agent must be migrated to the new agent.
Explanation

A Database Agent upgrade preserves its Controller connection configuration by copying controller-info.xml from the backed-up agent directory to the new installation. The upgrade procedure also stops the existing Database Agent and starts the new agent after installation. The Controller does not require a restart, and database collectors are configured in the Controller rather than migrated to the replacement agent.
