Drive alert suppression from specific metric events for specific server set

SrikanthSamraj — Thu, 01 Feb 2024 05:55:38 GMT

Hi,

We're monitoring drives (both C and non-C) on windows host using metric events as below.

Metric event low - threshold (< 10%)

Metric event medium - threshold (<5%)

Metric event high - threshold (<2%)

Now a requirement has come up to suppress only non-C drive alerts which has threshold <10% for specific server set. Is this doable in Dynatrace?

Any thoughts would be helpful.

Regards,

Srikanth

If we have separate metric events for C: and Non:C drive, I'd have tagged servers where alerts for low threshold is to be suppressed and filter them out from alerting profile.

Here in this case both C: and Non:C drives are monitored through one metric event.

Hi @SrikanthSamraj,

Try this new feature from 1.293 OA:

Host monitoring with Dynatrace - Dynatrace Docs

I hope it helps.

Best regards,

Thank you @Mizső. But this will require re-engineering entire disk monitoring currently configured. At the moment, we've achieved this at our event management system.
