Hi,

You can find some custom variables here.

I do not remember a way to do it, maybe Dynatrace support can help on it.

Best regards

Just for Clarity are you looking to change the polling time for the OneAgent on a host, or for a synthetic monitor. I only ask because this question was listed in the synthetics category.

@DAVID_MTZ,

[If we are talking synthetics here, as @ChadTurner has noted, it's not related to OneAgent. In this case, you should check ActiveGate synthetics configuration.]

Not sure if your asking about the frequency of measurements by OneAgent, but most of the values you see of infra metrics in Dynatrace are one minute. CPU has values every 10 seconds, but in the UI you typically only see one minute average values.

If you are talking about Full-Stack/APM, OneAgent typically captures all requests being made.

These values are not configurable in Dynatrace.
