From In-Process to Standalone

  1. Adjust your service startup scripts by removing the javaagent definition and adding parameters described in standalone mode

    • SPM_MONITOR_IN_PROCESS="false"
    • SPM_MONITOR_JMX_PARAMS should be adjusted according to instructions in Java App Agent Standalone
