Build

Use the build.sh Script to build the Docker Image. It will interactively ask for:

• Version - AppDynamics Agent Version. Is also used as tag for the image
• Portal User - AppDynamics Portal User Name to download the agents.
• Portal Password - AppDynamics Portal Password to download the agents.
• Image Name - Image Name for the Docker Image

Run

Sample docker run command:

docker run -d --name <container-name> \
    -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock \
    -v /:/hostroot:ro \
    -v <host-folder>:/app-agent \
    -e APPDYNAMICS_CONTROLLER_HOST_NAME="<controller-host>" \
    -e APPDYNAMICS_CONTROLLER_PORT="<controller-port>" \
    -e APPDYNAMICS_AGENT_ACCOUNT_NAME="<account-name>" \
    -e APPDYNAMICS_AGENT_ACCOUNT_ACCESS_KEY="<account-access-key>" \

    -e APPDYNAMICS_CONTROLLER_SSL_ENABLED="true/false" \
    -e APPDYNAMICS_DOCKER_ENABLED="true/false" \

• If you enable Docker Visibility it is required to mount the Docker Socket into the container
• Access to the hostroot is used for gathering Metrics from the underlying Host
• Server Visibility and Docker Visibility require a Server Visibility License
