A Performance Analyst is experiencing difficulty with the transaction response time on a node. The Performance Analyst attempts to create a health rule monitoring the business transactions' performance on that node. Which set of data should the Performance Analyst select when creating the health rule?
When a Performance Analyst is faced with issues related to transaction response times on a specific node, focusing on the 'Transaction performance' data is most relevant. This is because transaction performance metrics provide direct insights into the business transactions' speed, response times, and execution times, which are critical for identifying and troubleshooting performance issues. By selecting 'Transaction performance' when creating a health rule, the analyst can monitor specific metrics such as average response time, slow transaction count, and very slow transaction count, which are directly related to the performance of business transactions on the node in question.

Which two views can a Controller-level custom dashboard provide? (Choose two.)
Controller-level custom dashboards in AppDynamics have the flexibility to provide views that aggregate and compare data from different applications on the same Controller, as well as offer a customized view of applications, servers, and database performance data. This capability enables a holistic view of the IT environment, facilitating cross-application insights and the ability to correlate performance across different layers of the technology stack. Such dashboards are invaluable for understanding overarching trends, pinpointing systemic issues, and driving informed decision-making across multiple applications and infrastructure components.
AppDynamics documentation on Custom Dashboards: Provides detailed instructions on creating and customizing dashboards at the Controller level, including the aggregation and comparison of data from various sources.
AppDynamics documentation on Controller UI: Explains the functionalities available within the Controller UI, including the creation of comprehensive dashboards that encompass application, server, and database metrics.
Which option, in addition to "minutes since creation", would a Performance Analyst use while configuring Automatic Cleanup of stale Business Transactions?
When configuring Automatic Cleanup of stale Business Transactions, the 'minutes since creation' option is often paired with the 'Number of Calls' metric. This setting ensures that business transactions that have not been called within a certain timeframe and have had a negligible number of calls are automatically cleaned up, helping to maintain an organized and relevant set of business transactions in the monitoring system.
AppDynamics documentation on Business Transactions: Discusses best practices for managing business transactions, including the automatic cleanup based on time and call volume thresholds.
When should URI Segments be used in Transaction Detection rules?
URI Segments should be used in Transaction Detection rules when the application is web-oriented. Web-oriented applications often have meaningful information in the URI that can identify different business transactions. URI Segments can help in defining patterns that match specific parts of the URI to distinguish different transactions.

Within the configuration setting for Slow Transactions, under the "Configure Diagnostic Session Duration and Collection Rate" option, what is the default value pair for the setting "Collect up to ____snapshots per minute for _____ minutes"?
The default value pair for the setting 'Collect up to ____ snapshots per minute for _____ minutes' in the configuration for Slow Transactions is 10, 10. This means that by default, the system is set to collect up to 10 snapshots per minute for a duration of 10 minutes during a diagnostic session.
