Oracle VM Hypervisor (modified XEN) - supported?

Hello Gents!

Customer runs Oracle VM hypervisor for some Oracle WebLogic app. It is best practice from Oracle licensing reduction point of view. Oracle VM is modified open source XEN - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oracle_VM_Server_for...

Is Oracle VM supported to get full stack monitoring?

/supported-technologies-and-versions/ page knows only about XEN,and not provide any versions or details. https://www.dynatrace.com/technologies/oracle-clou... also short-spoken and do not provide details.

Kind thanks!

Regards,

Igor

Igor, as you stated the https://docs.dynatrace.com/docs/setup-and-configuration/technology-support page does not give you full clarity into the technology you are looking to monitor. If the oneagent will not monitor that technology, you can always use agentless monitoring as a fall back.

with that being said, were you able to monitoring it with the oneagent without any issues? did you have to go with the agentless monitoring? Do you have any feedback for other users trying to monitor the same thing?
