Enabling AppDynamics in Harness 24/7 Service Guard helps Harness monitor your live applications, catching problems that surface minutes or hours following deployment. This topic covers:
Set up a Harness Application, containing a Service and Environment. See Create an Application.
For 24/7 Service Guard, you do not need to add an Artifact Source to the Service, nor configure its settings. You simply need to create a Service and name it. It will represent your application for 24/7 Service Guard.
To set up 24/7 Service Guard for AppDynamics, do the following:
In your Harness Application, click Environments.
In Environments, ensure that you have added an Environment for the Service you added. For steps on adding an Environment, see Environments.
Click the Environment for your Service. Typically, the Environment Type is Production.
In the Environment page, locate 24/7 Service Guard.
In 24/7 Service Guard, click Add Service Verification, and then click AppDynamics.The AppDynamics dialog appears.
Step 2: Display Name
Enter a name that will identify this service on the Continuous Verification dashboard. Use a name that indicates the Environment and monitoring tool, such as AppDynamics Prod.
Step 3: Service
Select the Harness Service to monitor with 24/7 Service Guard.
Select the Application Name used by the monitoring tool. In AppDynamics, the applications are listed in the Applications tab.
Step 6: Tier Name
The Tier Name drop-down is populated with tiers from the application you selected. Pick the tier from which you want usage metrics, code exceptions, error conditions, and exit calls. In AppDynamics, the tiers are displayed in the Tiers & Nodes page.
For 24/7 Service Guard, the queries you define to collect logs are specific to the Application or Service that you want monitored. (Verification is Application/Service level.) This is unlike Workflows, where verification is performed at the host/node/pod level.
