Snapshots are the detailed records of the execution of a business transaction, including the call stack, the exit points, the errors, and the metrics. To locate snapshots showing slow database response, you can use the following methods:

• Go to the list of snapshots and apply a filter based on slow database response: You can access the list of snapshots from the Business Transaction Dashboard or the Tier Dashboard. You can then apply a filter to show only the snapshots that have a slow database response time, which is the time spent by the business transaction in calling the database. You can specify the minimum and maximum values for the slow database response time, or use the predefined options such as slower than 1 second, slower than 5 seconds, etc. You can also combine this filter with other filters, such as time range, business transaction name, tier name, node name, etc. to narrow down the results1.
• From the flow map, right-click the database icon and select view snapshots: You can access the flow map from the Application Dashboard, the Business Transaction Dashboard, or the Tier Dashboard. The flow map shows the graphical representation of the flow of the business transactions, including the tiers, the nodes, the backends, and the remote services. You can right-click on any database icon on the flow map and select view snapshots to see the list of snapshots that have called that database. You can then sort or filter the snapshots by the database response time column to find the slowest ones2.

The other options are not valid methods to locate snapshots showing slow database response. Going to the dashboard for the database and selecting slowest database calls will show the metrics and the flow map for the database, but not the snapshots. Going to the list of snapshots and selecting analyze for a group of snapshots will show the summary and the comparison of the selected snapshots, but not the database response time.

Two types of information that can be shared without an AppDynamics login are Flow Map and Custom Dashboards. Flow Map is a graphical representation of the application topology, showing the interactions between the tiers, nodes, backends, and remote services. CustomDashboards are user-defined views of the application performance data, metrics, and events. You can share these types of information by generating a shareable link from the Controller UI, which can be accessed by anyone who has the link, without requiring a login12 References: 1: Share a Flow Map 2: Share a Custom Dashboard

To find the information that shows the current application, tier, and node that the agent currently reports to, you can go to View my settings > AppDynamics Agents section in the Controller UI. This section shows you the list of agents that are connected to the Controller, along with their status, version, application, tier, and node names. You can also filter the list by agent type, status, or application1 References: 1: AppDynamics Agents
