Activating the configuration in the dotNetDcConfig.properties.inactive file

When you change the configuration values in the dotNetDcConfig.properties file with the configdc command, if the .properites file is being used and cannot be modified at that time, your settings are saved in the dotNetDcConfig.properties.inactive file. You must activate the updated configuration so the changes can be written in the dotNetDcConfig.properties file when appropriate.

Procedure

  1. Navigate to install_dir\qe\bin, where install_dir is the installation directory of the Microsoft .NET agent.
  2. Enter configdc activateConfig

What to do next

If the Internet Information Service (IIS) transactions are monitored and the data collector configuration is updated, restart the IIS to activate the configuration.

If ASMX or WCF web services are monitored and the data collector configuration is updated, complete one of the following steps:
  • Restart the process that hosts the web service.
  • Unregister the data collector by running the configdc unregisterdc command, and then register it again by running the configdc registerdc command.
