A company wants to be notified when the disk space on a critical database server falls below 20% free. They have already enabled Server Monitoring for the machine. What is the most efficient way to achieve this in AppDynamics?

Manually check the Server Monitoring UI daily and send an email when disk space is low.

Configure the Machine Agent to send an email directly when disk space is low.

Set up a custom dashboard to display disk space and rely on visual inspection.

Create a health rule on the server's disk space metric and associate it with an alerting policy.

A company is evaluating AppDynamics for infrastructure monitoring. They want to know if Server Monitoring can track disk usage on their Windows servers. What should the administrator tell them?

Yes, Server Monitoring captures disk usage metrics for Windows servers.

Yes, but only for Linux servers.

No, Server Monitoring only captures CPU and memory metrics.

No, disk usage is only available through a third-party plugin.

An administrator notices that the CPU metric for a server shows a consistent 95% usage during business hours but drops to 10% at night. The application is responsive during the day. What is the most appropriate interpretation of these metrics?

The server is idle at night, so the CPU metric is inaccurate.

The server is under-provisioned and needs immediate scaling.

The server is experiencing a memory leak that causes CPU to spike during the day.

The server is operating at high capacity during business hours, which may be normal for the workload.

An administrator is investigating a performance issue on a Linux server. The Server Monitoring UI shows high CPU usage but low memory usage. The administrator needs to determine if the high CPU is caused by a specific process. What should the administrator do in the AppDynamics UI?

Check the server's network metrics to see if high traffic is causing CPU spikes.

Navigate to the server's Process List and sort by CPU usage.

Enable the server's health rule for CPU and wait for an alert.

Review the server's disk I/O metrics to see if disk contention is causing high CPU.

A company has a mix of Windows and Linux servers. They have enabled Server Monitoring for all of them. However, the Linux servers show no data in the Server Monitoring UI, while Windows servers are fine. The Machine Agent is running on the Linux servers. What is the most likely cause?

The Linux servers are not connected to the network.

The Linux servers are not supported by Server Monitoring.

The Machine Agent on the Linux servers is not configured to collect server metrics.

The Windows servers are consuming all the Controller's resources.
