OneAgent discovery mode (Host Criticality)

Hello, Please is there a button in dynatrace or a place where we click to see the criticality of the host?

in this link : Infrastructure and Discovery monitoring modes - Dynatrace Docs I see that the Discovery Mode offers the Host criticality (detection of external services and application dependencies) I would like to know if there is a button to go see this host criticality

Hi @stevenganso , I've responded to your earlier post , including it here again

Host criticality isn't really a field or a value is dynatrace , its more of a importance or impact of a host within your environment which is determined based on the detection of external services and application dependencies that the host interacts with.

As an example , from the host details, you can see the detected external services and application dependencies, which contribute to the host's criticality. It mostly helps in determining the impact host might have if it goes down or if there is a failure detected on that host.

Some ways you can visualize is by looking at the smartscape or process connection or problems

Hope this clarifies
