Metric Collection Filters

If the default metric collection is not sufficient for your environment, you can create additional metric collection filter files for the agents that are by default not available with the integration.

Five Basic Metrics

Most instrumented methods report five metrics. These are known as Blame metrics.

You can use trends in the five basic metrics, coupled with changes in other metrics, to identify and diagnose problems. For more information, see the CA APM documentation.

OpsCx for CA APM comes preconfigured to collect the following metrics:

Metrics included Metric RegExp Agent RegExp
Average Response Frontends\|.*(.*Average Response Time.*?|.*Average Response Time.*?|.*Concurrent Invocations.*?|.*Errors Per Interval.*?|.*Responses Per Interval.*?|.*Stall Count.*?)

(?!Custom Metric Host \(Virtual\)).*?
