IIB Node Types

The agent can continue business transactions detected upstream at these node types:

  • JMSInput
  • MQInput

The agent can detect and tag exit calls for downstream correlation at these node types:

  • SOAPRequest
  • HTTPRequest
  • JMSOutput, JMSReply
  • MQOutput, MQReply

For MQ, we use the MQRFH2 message header to provide correlation. Any applications consuming MQ messages from IIB with the IIB agent must support the MQRFH2 header.

  • DatabaseRetrieve
  • DatabaseRoute

All nodes are represented within AppDynamics Business Transactions as Threads. You can view the per node timings in the tree view of the Business Transaction dashboard and in the transaction snapshots.
