DX Application Performance Management

Hello folks , I would like to monitor  the port 8080 which it is the one been configured for the EPA agent in Solaris. 

The goal it is  , if the port it is no listening send us an alert. Once in a while we lost the EPA gent and I would like to have a better monitoring in place . 

I found a Metric under 

*SuperDomain*|server_name|EPAgentProcess|EPAgent|EPAgent|Config:HTTP Server Port

But it is not collecting any value. 

I am wondering If am I missing a plugging ? 

Thanks

Why not just use 'netstat -an|grep 8080' parse for the status?

Right , does apm can do that itself ?

Or you mean to add this in the script ? 

consider using this: https://github.com/htdavis/ca-apm-fieldpack-epa-netcheck 

You could write a short script, like the examples we provide on CA APM Dev community (http://bit.ly/caapm-dev) to send some JSON data and parse the HTTP response code.

Anything under the 'Config' branch is strictly that: agent configuration information; not whether the agent is currently responding to requests on the port.
