Dynatrace Managed - More disk IOPS needed for the robust deployment!

Radoslaw_Szulgo — Tue, 18 Mar 2025 11:48:32 GMT

We've analyzed thousands of your deployments and compared with Managed Hardware Requirements doc page. It seems that more IOPS are required for smooth running Web UI, REST API, on-demand analysis etc.

Managed hardware requirements have been updated for required IOPS per cluster node to reflect current needs to provide on-demand analysis. It's about 10x more.

Please adjust as required on your side. Also that's important to you if you plan new deployments to follow new guidelines.

For the reference I leave the previous version screenshot:

@Radoslaw_Szulgo,

Thanks for your input! I've had a feeling for a long time that disk requirements were set too low. In my opinion, writing so much information to disk as it arrives causes a lot of disk activity, and it can lead to reading being slow. I'm eager to see if the rollout of 1.230 and it's monitoring tenant will contribute to a better knowledge of what is happening in out client Managed installations 🙂

New version, local self-monitoring environment and the dashboard should come shortly! Thanks for understanding the update and sharing feedback!

@Radoslaw_Szulgo

It seems that I'll have to wait some more time to get those disk metrics, as the OneAgent info seems to not be available in the new self-monitoring environment. I have commented this at https://community.dynatrace.com/t5/Dynatrace-Open-Q-A/Local-self-monitoring-environment/m-p/177260

Will this be available in the near future?

Hi @Rado
This is awesome. We have been struggling with one of the customers about slowness in Dynatrace UI and we were troubleshooting this since last 6 months. Now this cleared my suspicion about what might causing the slowness. Trust me, this helped me in a big big time.
