inspectIT Rich Client

  1. Download the inspectIT Rich Client with the CoScale extension from here: 
  2. Extract the archive and execute the inspectIT file (on Windows: inspectIT.exe) to start the rich client.
  3. Connect the rich client to the CMR:
    1. Open the Image AddedRepository Manager View
    2. If your CMR is running on the localhost, you already should see that the CMR is connected (green ball / checkmark):
      Image Added

    3. Otherwise configure a new connection to your CMR by clicking on Image Added.
    4. In the opened wizard enter the Name and IP-Address and click on Finish.
  4. Define an instrumentation Environment (this step is important for the agent to be connected!)
    1. Switch to the Configuration perspective and open the Image AddedInstrumentation Manager
      Image Added

    2. Create an instrumentation environment for your application. Give it some name.

    3. Open the agent mapping view:

    4. Create a new mapping by clicking on the green plus button at the right.
    5. In the wizard enter the name and IP address of your agent and select the previously created environment.
    6. Note: These steps provide only a basic instrumentation. How to create an advanced, meaningful instrumentation (that is application specific) is described on a separate page: Configuration basics

inspectIT Agent

  1. Download the inspectIT Agent from here:
  2. To install the inspectIT agent follow the instructions on the corresponding section on this page: Manual JavaAgent installation.
  3. Once the application started successfully with the agent, the connected agent should appear under the CMR node in the Image AddedRepository Manager View in the rich client:
    Image Added

Validate Installation

To check whether installation and the instrumentation configuration was successful do some interaction with your target application and check whether inspectIT shows any data that has been collected:
