perfino Quick Pointers
Starting the perfino server
On Windows and Mac OS X, the installer starts the service automatically, you don't have to do anything.
On Linux and Unix, you have to integrate /etc/init.d/perfino_service into the start sequence.
Alternatively, you can start bin/perfino_console for a quick evaluation.
Changing the configuration
Most of the configuration is available in the web interface. Some server properties such as the
the web server port cannot be changed while running and are configured with the configure executable
in this directory. You can also edit the config file perfino.properties directory.
Monitoring JVMs
In the web interface, click on the "Add VMs" button. The wizard will provide instructions as well as the
files for the monitoring agent.
Using the API to define transactions in your code
While you can configure transactions for POJOs in the web interface, it's more convenient to use the "devops" transaction
annotations. The JAR file with all the annotations is located under api/perfino_api.jar
