You can view 4.5 Analytics Agents connected to your Controller from the AppDynamics Agents page on the Analytics Agents tab. You can view agent status and health information for the Log Analytics and Transaction Analytics pipelines.
When a new Analytics Agent starts and connects to the Controller, it registers with the Controller. Once the agent is registered, the agent requests configuration information every five minutes. As part of this request, the Analytics Agent reports health status information to the Controller. A healthy pipeline means analytics data is flowing from the Analytics Agent to the Events Service successfully.
