Process Monitoring Disabled by default in OneAgent

himanshu_mor — Tue, 16 Jan 2024 14:43:59 GMT

Hi,

Upon installing oneagent on a new windows machine , i can see that some .NET processes have their monitoring disabled (by default).

What is the criteria which OneAgent uses to determine which process's monitoring will have to be manually enabled?

Such processes are highlighted with Yellow color in the image

Thanks

Well... Actually I think I've found answer here:

https://www.dynatrace.com/news/blog/automated-fine-grained-control-of-monitoring-at-scale/

"Dynatrace doesn’t automatically perform deep monitoring of .NET and Go processes, as there are many arbitrary processes that rely on these processes. "

I guess there are some exceptions for well known .NET processes. But in general it seems .NET processes are not deep-instrumented by default.
