    Hi Team,

     

    I am using CA APM 10.1 which is monitoring Weblogic Application.

    Which pbd to use to Configure Tracers in default frontend Marker.

    Need to add MethodRateTracer to all the frontend marked along with the default blame point tracer.

     

    Regards,

    Do not alter default PBDs. Create your own so it doesn't get overwritten by future updates to the agent.

    Hi Hiko,

     

    I have created cutom pdb for custom classes.

     

    TraceOneMethodOfClass: com.xx.***.***.***.dao.*** populateResponse MethodRateTracer "Custom|xx|***|populateResponse:Method Invocations Per Second"

     

    But could you guide me how to use MethodRateTracer for frontendmarker

    FrontendMarker extends BlamePointTracer, which will give you all five metrics (ART, RPI, EPI,CI,SC). Use that and define the path as "App|populateResponse".

    You can then monitor RPI.

    If you insist on using MethodRateTracer, then what you have is fine, assuming you know what "x" and "*" are. You can use dynamic substitution for "x" and "*" by using "{classname}" (without quotes).
