Custom event alert - 2 metrics

jose-antonio_ra — Wed, 15 Jul 2020 08:00:05 GMT

Hi all.

I want to make 1 custom event alert that meets 2 conditions with the AND operator. That is, I need to value 2 metrics in a single event:

Memory Used % (AVG)

AND

Garbage Collector TotalTime (value)

Metric 1:

And

Metric 2:

Does anyone have any ideas how can I do it?

Thanks in advanced!!

Best regards.

Jose A

At this time, you cannot conjoin the two alerts into one with 2 conditions. I am checking further with support for clarification.

In the mean time you can always create a RFE for this use case. Click the following link: https://community.dynatrace.com/t5/forums/postpage/board-id/DynatraceProductIdeas

As noted, that's not possible in the product right now and would be an Idea/RFE.

What you could do at this time is in an ActiveGate extension, or somewhere else where you can run some code, pull the two metrics through the API evaluate the metrics and the send back an event through the API if your conditions are met.

Thanks James,

I'm going to investigate your idea.

I have created this RFE:
