What are two options tor sharing snapshot details from the snapshot window? (Choose two.)
Answer : C, E
To share snapshot details from the snapshot window in AppDynamics, the options to 'Download PDF' and 'Export' are typically used. 'Download PDF' allows users to generate a PDF report of the snapshot details, providing a convenient and portable format for sharing and review. The 'Export' option enables the extraction of snapshot data in various formats (e.g., CSV, XML), facilitating further analysis or sharing with other tools and stakeholders.

Question 2
Which two Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) accurately provide insight into server level resource consumption? (Choose two.)
Answer : E, F
Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) such as 'CPU %Busy' and 'Memory Used%' are critical for providing insights into server-level resource consumption. 'CPU %Busy' indicates the percentage of time the CPU is actively working on processes, reflecting the server's processing workload. 'Memory Used%' shows the proportion of memory utilized, indicating how much of the server's RAM is being consumed by applications and processes. These KPIs are essential for understanding and managing server performance and resource allocation.
AppDynamics documentation on Server Monitoring: Includes information on monitoring server-level metrics, including CPU and memory utilization, to assess resource consumption.
Question 3
How does a Performance Analyst identify if automatic remediation has been taken for a health rule violation?
Answer : A
To identify if automatic remediation actions have been taken for a health rule violation in AppDynamics, a Performance Analyst should expand the 'Description' field of the health rule violation event. This section will provide details on the actions executed as part of the automatic remediation process. These details help analysts understand the steps taken by the system to mitigate the issue without manual intervention.

Question 4
A Business Transaction was registered and displayed on the Business Transaction Dashboard. It has continuous load on it. After an hour the Business Transaction stopped being displayed in the Business Transaction Dashboard. Which action stopped the display of the Business Transaction?
Answer : C
If a Business Transaction stops being displayed on the Business Transaction Dashboard after continuous load, it could be due to the deletion of the Business Transaction Custom Match Rule. Custom Match Rules in AppDynamics are used to define custom business transactions based on specific criteria. If such a rule is deleted, transactions that were previously identified and displayed based on that rule may no longer be recognized as distinct business transactions, leading to their disappearance from the dashboard.
AppDynamics documentation on Business Transactions: Provides insights on configuring and managing business transactions, including the use of custom match rules.
Question 5
What is the purpose of a transaction snapshot?
Answer : A
A transaction snapshot in AppDynamics is a detailed report of a single execution of a business transaction. Its primary purpose is to analyze issues with a specific business transaction by providing a comprehensive view of the transaction's execution path, including timing, call graphs, and database queries. This allows performance analysts and developers to drill down into individual transactions to diagnose performance bottlenecks, errors, or anomalies.
AppDynamics documentation on Transaction Snapshots: Offers detailed guidance on how to capture and analyze transaction snapshots to troubleshoot and optimize application performance.
Question 6
When should URI Segments be used in Transaction Detection rules?
Answer : C
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.

Question 7
An AppDynamics deployment has Business Transaction Lock Down turned on. The company has just added an important service to its application and wants to track this service as a unique Business Transaction. What action is needed to achieve this?
Answer : D
When Business Transaction Lock Down is enabled in AppDynamics, no new business transactions will be automatically discovered to avoid uncontrolled growth in the number of business transactions. To track a new service as a unique Business Transaction, one needs to create a Custom Match Rule that specifies the criteria for identifying the business transaction. In this case, the Custom Match Rule should be based on the Web Service Name and Operation Name which are the distinguishing characteristics of the new service. This allows for the precise identification and monitoring of the service within the AppDynamics platform.
