Step 5: Next steps
editStep 5: Next steps
editWith the backend installed, we recommend testing the backend and reading the documentation on operating the backend
Test the backend
editFollow the steps described in Install the host-agent to install the host-agent on a machine, and verify that the backend is working as expected.
The agent logs will show that the agent is sending data to the backend, and navigating to Kibana you should be able to see data in the Stacktraces view.
Inspect the backend services logs to verify that the data is being received and ingested.
If needed, re-configure the backend services with verbose: true
to get more detailed logs.
If you find issues in the logs, refer to Troubleshooting Universal Profiling backend.
Operating the backend
editNext we recommend reading Operating the Universal Profiling backend to learn how to monitor and scale the backend on each platform.
