Hello Carlos,
I believe the root cause here was the missing activity, you need to ensure the generation of traces to be able to see data populated in the map.
Configure Team Center Map - CA Application Performance Management - 10.7 - CA Technologies Documentation
"Team Center map relies on the transaction trace data to populate the map. Therefore, it is important to record transaction traces to ensure that all nodes show on the map."
We keep enhancing APM so the map is generated as soon and as accurate as possible, most of this is possible right now because of the Agent Smart instrumentation feature
Configure Smart Instrumentation - CA Application Performance Management - 10.7 - CA Technologies Documentation
To give you a brief summary of SI evolution
In 10.0: we added
-Automatic Entry Point Detection (introscope.agent.deep.entrypoint.enabled) -> this allows us to obtain all possible frontends
-Automatic Transaction Traces based on Differential analysis
In 10.2 : added
-Enhanced Automatic entry point detection in threads with Backends (introscope.agent.deep.entrypoint.enabled)
In 10.3: added
-Cross Proces AutoTracing (introscope.agent.deep.automatic.trace.crossprocess.enabled) -> CPTT for Auto trace ensures downstream traces are sent to EM
In 10.5: added
- Produce Complete ATC Relationship View Faster : Along with sample traces and normal traces a new transaction trace is generated by agent automatically when agent sees a particular transaction for the first time. (it is named “discovery trace”).
- Automatic Backend Detection (introscope.agent.automatic.backend.detection.enabled) -> backends component can be auto instrumented on the fly to enable performance visibility, this help you to automatically pin point the component for application slowness or failure without any manual intervention or side effort
You can use the above individual properties to disable the individual features but all of them depends on the below master switches:
introscope.agent.deep.instrumentation.enabled=
introscope.agent.deep.trace.enabled=
All this help us produce an accurate map in ATC
I hope this helps,
Sergio
