The
Agent Manager's primary functions are to:
Connect directly to the Agents and process the
data and alerts collected by the Agents.
Perform network packet capture analysis and
generate reports for the collected packet files associated with
Enterprise Synthetic. To do this, use a runtime component of the
Dynatrace Network Analyzer application.
Process screenshots captured by the Agents.
Manage Agent health and apply software updates
to the Agents.
After the data is collected and processed, the
Agent Manager stores the transaction timings in the
Enterprise Synthetic SQL Server database and the screenshots and transactions locally on the local
file system of the Agent Manager machine.
For scalability, you can implement
Agent Managers with a hierarchical structure so that child
Agent Managers report to a designated parent
Agent Manager. The data that the child
Agent Manager collects propagates to its parent
Agent Manager which stores it in its database.
