According to the Actions document1, there are four types of standard controller actions that are available to be created: Notification, Diagnostic, Remediation, and JIRA. Each type of action has different subtypes that perform specific tasks. For example, the Notification type includes Email, SMS, and HTTP Request subtypes, while the Diagnostic type includes Thread Dump, Heap Dump, and Diagnostic Session subtypes. Therefore, the correct answer is D and E, as Email and Thread Dump are subtypes of standard controller actions. Resolve, Close Incident, and Undeploy are not standard controller actions, but they may be custom actions that are created by the user or the administrator. References:

To properly configure a database agent from a zip file, you need to provide the following minimum details:

• Controller Host: This is the hostname or IP address of the machine where the Controller is installed. You need to specify this so that the Database Agent can communicate with the Controller and send the collected data1
• Controller Port: This is the port number that the Controller listens on for incoming connections. You need to specify this so that the Database Agent can connect to the Controller using the correct protocol. The default ports are 8090 for HTTP and 8181 for HTTPS for on-premise Controllers, and 80 for HTTP and 443 for HTTPS for SaaS Controllers1
• Account Access Key: This is the key that authenticates the Database Agent with the Controller. You need to specify this so that the Database Agent can register itself with the Controller and access the license. You can find the account access key in the Controller UI under Settings > License > Account1
• Account Name: This is the name of the account that the Database Agent belongs to. You need to specify this so that the Database Agent can associate itself with the correct application and user permissions. You can find the account name in the Controller UI under Settings > License > Account1

An exception in AppDynamics is a code-level event that indicates a problem or abnormality in the execution of a business transaction. AppDynamics captures and presents information on exceptions in the monitored environment, and allows you to configure the rules and criteria for detecting and reporting exceptions.

According to the Errors and Exceptions - AppDynamics, the following two types of events would be marked as an exception in AppDynamics:

• A custom-configured error method and error message: This is a type of event that you can define as an exception based on a specific method and message that indicate an error condition in your application code. You can configure the error detection rules to mark a business transaction as an error and capture the exception information when such a method and message are encountered. For example, you can configure a rule to mark a business transaction as an error and capture the exception when the method com.example.MyClass.myMethod returns the message Invalid input.
• Any message that is logged with a severity of Error or Fatal: This is a type of event that AppDynamics automatically detects as an exception based on the log messages that are generated by your application code. AppDynamics scans the log messages for the keywords Error or Fatal, and marks the business transaction as an error and captures the exception information when such a message is found. For example, AppDynamics will mark a business transaction as an error and capture the exception when the log message contains Error: Null pointer exception.

Therefore, B (a custom-configured error method and error message) and C (any message that is logged with a severity of Error or Fatal) are two types of events that would be marked as an exception in AppDynamics. References:
