Web application detection on host running Visual Studio

jmurray1 — Wed, 12 Dec 2018 17:23:03 GMT

Hi! This is a two part question:

We have a Dynatrace agent on a web server and one a laptop - the laptop is running the site via Visual Studio. I see the web application shown for the web server, but not for the laptop.

q1 - is there any additional config required for the laptop agent to recognize the served webs (especially for useful detections such as javascript errors and latency), given the above?

q2 - is there an *easy* way to attribute which host each of the applications are attributed?

Things I'd check (regarding q1):

Do you see the webserver processes on the laptop host in Dynatrace?
If you can see the webserver / application server process on the laptop, is it instrumented? (open the process instance in Dynatrace and check for oneagent version in the properties)
If you open the web application targeting the laptop, is the Dynatrace RUM JavaScript inserted in the web pages?
If the Dynatrace RUM JavaScript is inserted, is the beacon JavaScript is sending data to reachable?

Regarding q2 - I'm afraid I don't understand your question.
