Hello @nagaraj1991,

first: why would you need to modify a SAS installation, to integrate it with another tool (monitoring tool)? Montoring can be done with java JMX.

Second: carefull with modification to SAS configuration, you might lose support from SAS Technical Support, for unsupported configurations. If it is a production system, you don't want to risk level A support for an expensive application.

Third: give a look intro the wrapper or sent_env files in /conf or /bin. All of those are Java parameters, sure you can add new jars to it.

This file should exist for each of your JVM instances(SASServer1_1, 2_1, 12_1, etc):

config/Lev1/Web/WebAppServer/SASServerX_X/bin/setenv.sh

In there, you will find the following line:

CLASSPATH="$CATALINA_BASE/lib/log4j.jar:$CATALINA_BASE/lib:$CATALINA_BASE/conf:$JRE_HOME/../lib/tools.jar

Append the path to your .jar file to this classpath so that it looks like this:

CLASSPATH="$CATALINA_BASE/lib/log4j.jar:$CATALINA_BASE/lib:$CATALINA_BASE/conf:$JRE_HOME/../lib/tools.jar:/wherever/your/jar/file/is.jar"

I'm not sure how supported this is, but it should help you assuming you're trying to implement Object Instance Tracking for Java. Also, if you're having capacity or stability issues with ECM, I doubt AppDynamics will give you enough info to do anything useful. For monitoring the actual workload I would recommend you have a look at our workload monitoring product, ESM.
