inspectIT Rich Client
- Download the inspectIT Rich Client with the CoScale extension from here:
- Extract the archive and execute the inspectIT file (on Windows: inspectIT.exe) to start the rich client.
- Connect the rich client to the CMR:
- Open the Repository Manager View

- Otherwise configure a new connection to your CMR by clicking on .
- In the opened wizard enter the Name and IP-Address and click on Finish.
- Define an instrumentation Environment (this step is important for the agent to be connected!)
- Switch to the Configuration perspective and open the Instrumentation Manager
- Create an instrumentation environment for your application. Give it some name.
- Open the agent mapping view:
- Create a new mapping by clicking on the green plus button at the right.
- In the wizard enter the name and IP address of your agent and select the previously created environment.
- 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
- Switch to the Configuration perspective and open the Instrumentation Manager

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