The agent log contains information about the transactions that the agent processes and sends to the proxy.
The log is located at $<apache_agent_install>/logs/agent.log. By default this is /opt/appdynamics-sdk-native/logs/agent.log.
The default pattern for agent log naming is the following:
agent.log: the current log
agent.log.1: most recent log
agent.log.2: second most recent log
agent.log.3: third most recent log
agent.log.4: fourth most recent log
agent.log.5: fifth recent log.
The agent creates and rotates a maximum of six log files. Maximum log size is 20 MB, which gives you a maximum of the most recent 120 MB of log data at one time.
Proxy Log
The proxy log contains information about the transactions between the proxy and the Controller.
The proxy log consists of a file named proxyCore.log located at $<apache_agent_install>/logs/proxyCore_$date.log and other files named agent.<datestamp>.log located at $<apache_agent_install>/logs/<node_name>/agent.<datestamp>.log.
