Uptime metric PaaS type

AntonPineiro — Tue, 29 Jul 2025 06:05:58 GMT

Hi,

OneAgent installed in PaaS mode do not shows uptime information. Metric "builtin:host.uptime" is empty.

Which would be alternative?

Thank you!

Best regards

Hi @AntonPineiro
It's because the source is not a pure Linux host but a pod, where the relevant metric is age, which does not map to uptime. This is because it is not collected in the same way as on a Linux host.

Anyway, the only alternative I’m aware of is to send the metric either via Prometheus or using the metrics ingest custom extension.

Hi,

Could you share large metric name about that "age"?

It is for looking for it in Data explorer or metrics apps.

Thank you!

Best regards
