What happens to a transaction snapshot after its retention period expires?

It is moved to a separate 'expired' folder for manual review.

It is archived to a long-term storage location.

It is compressed and kept indefinitely.

It is automatically purged from the Controller.

When configuring snapshot data collection scope, which of the following is a typical option to balance detail and overhead?

Capture call graphs only for slow transactions

Capture call graphs for all transactions

Capture all data for every transaction

Which of the following is a way to manually manage or purge snapshots in AppDynamics?

Use the 'Purge All' button on the dashboard.

Wait for the retention period to expire automatically.

Delete individual snapshots from the Snapshot list in the UI.

Change the retention period to zero in the configuration.

An administrator is reviewing a snapshot for a slow order-processing transaction. The call graph shows that 80% of the total response time is spent in a single method called 'validateAddress'. The administrator wants to confirm whether this method is making an external call to a third-party service. What should the administrator examine in the snapshot?

The diagnostic information section for thread dumps related to the method

The exit call details within the call graph for the 'validateAddress' method

The snapshot summary to see the overall transaction duration and status

The transaction data section to see if the method logged any business errors

An administrator notices that the controller is storing too many snapshots, and the storage is filling up. The team only needs to keep snapshots for the last 30 days for troubleshooting. The administrator wants to automate the cleanup of old snapshots. What should the administrator configure?

Reduce the snapshot capture frequency to reduce the number of snapshots stored

Increase the snapshot storage limit to allow more snapshots to be stored

Set the snapshot retention policy to 30 days in the controller settings

Manually purge snapshots older than 30 days on a weekly basis
