Application pod recycles through Dynatrace in EC2/EKS/Openshift

Has anyone automated (or at least created a manual toggle) for the recycling of pods in an unhealthy state through Dynatrace?

We're seeing quite a few instances where we need to recycle application pods and having to go to different tools to do such, would like to keep it in the same observability tool.

You can do it via 3rd party apps but as you stated, you'd like to keep it internal to Dynatrace. Have you looked into their automation engine? I would imagine you can trigger the action on the entity given the detected state in Dynatrace needing a recycle.

Had thought about that, but we're not quite there on the maturity scale. Appreciate the response!
