A company is planning to use AppDynamics Server Monitoring to track the performance of their web servers. They want to ensure they can see CPU, memory, disk, and network metrics. What do they need to do?

Install the Machine Agent on each web server and enable Server Monitoring.

Configure the web server to send metrics to the Controller directly.

Use the Controller's built-in server monitoring feature without any agents.

Install the Application Agent on each web server.

An administrator is troubleshooting a slow application. The Server Monitoring UI shows high memory usage and high disk I/O on the server. What is the most likely bottleneck?

The CPU is underpowered, causing the application to be slow.

The network is saturated, causing the application to wait for data.

Memory pressure is causing excessive paging to disk, leading to high disk I/O.

The application is waiting for a database lock.

A company wants to receive an alert when the memory usage on a server exceeds 80% for 15 minutes. They have already created a health rule for this condition. What is the next step to ensure they receive the alert?

Enable the Machine Agent to send an email directly.

Create a custom dashboard to display the memory metric.

Restart the Machine Agent to apply the health rule.

Associate the health rule with an alerting policy that has an email action.

A company has installed the Machine Agent on a server and enabled Server Monitoring. They want to verify that the agent is collecting server metrics. What is the quickest way to verify this in the AppDynamics UI?

Restart the Machine Agent and wait for a few minutes.

Create a health rule and see if it triggers.

Navigate to Server Monitoring and check if the server appears and shows metrics.

Check the Machine Agent log for errors.
