The easiest is to use an extension. We use it internally in Dynatrace as well. See a sample screenshot:

HI @pbijgavne

IBM MQ is available through the extension

Once the extension deployed, and configured, you will be able to retrieve all the metrics.

How can I monitor CPU queue using Dynatrace Managed?

I tried searching with keywords like queue/depth in custom graph metrics but couldn't get any result.

I wanted to check if any threads are waiting for CPU during performance testing.
