According to the Install the Standalone Machine Agent document1, the machine agent is a standalone Java program that collects performance statistics about your environment. It can be deployed on any machine that hosts application servers, database servers, messaging servers, Web servers, etc. However, the machine agent does not start collecting metrics as soon as it is installed. You need to start the machine agent manually or configure it to run as a service or a daemon. Therefore, the correct answer is D. The machine agent does not require an app agent to collect metrics, nor does it run with the monitored application. These are false statements. References:
