    Hi All,

     

    Need assistance in checking compatibility for CA APM 10.2 SQLAgent.pbd with respect to JDBC version.

     

    Environment Details:

    • CA APM Version : 10.2
    • Weblogic Agent : 10.2
    • Weblogic Server : 12C
    • JDBC Driver Version : 5.5

     

    Already referred the CA APM Compatibility matrix but I am not able to get the desired answer

    As per CA APM CM : SQL Agent -> Oracle 12C -> oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver / Oracle supplied thin client XA driver / com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver  (however this is not giving the clear Idea for SQL Drive)

     

    The reason for the above question is that I am getting Unknown SQL appearing in the Investigator and as per the below article foremost important thing is message is associated with the JDBC driver version used by the application reporting, there are possibly other reason also agree.

    Thanks in advance

     

    Regards,

    For JDBC driver compatibility, adding Florian_Cheval to see if he can clear this up.

    The JDBC driver will have a fully-qualified name, there are multiple JDBC drivers for the same database, different types.

    Just a version of 5.5 is not enough to determine compatibility, but, at a wild guess, it sounds like something related to MySQL, which isn't supported anyway.

    To really know compatibility, anyone would need to know the actual name of the jar file, class used to initiate connection, stated version of JDBC driver, if not obvious from file name, and JDBC driver type, usually 2 or 4.

    Usually if the agent is run in DEBUG mode, it will tell you to skip a particular class to stop the Unknown SQL metrics from appearing, but further work in the code would be required to actually get SQL metrics out as we know them.

    And then an idea can be raised to request full support for the driver.

    Hi David,

     

    Thanks for your prompt response, refering to below community link

    https://communities.ca.com/message/241945340?commentID=241945340#comment-241945340 able to retrieve data however getting Unknown statements.

     

    With respect to actual name of the jar file, class used to initiate connection, stated version of JDBC driver will get back to you tomorrow.

     

    I am getting Unknown SQL statements for not only MYSQL database but also for MS SQL also (Both data  bases are being used by the application).

    Winkle Khurana
