Question about Abnormality of OneAgent

menda — Tue, 11 Jun 2019 02:27:19 GMT

Hi,

Our customers will detect OneAgent errors by log file existing monitoring.

I have two questions about Abnormality of OneAgent.

When OneAgent itself occurs an abnormality, can OneAgent output a messages log (Linux) or an event log (Windows)?
If OneAgent output a messages log (Linux) or an event log (Windows), what error message does the log file include?
- Message list
- Type of anomaly

Best Regards,

Masahiko Enda

Hi Masahiko,

Any "abnormality" that happens with the OneAgent would be logged in the OneAgent log files. They are stored by default at /opt/dynatrace/oneagent/log for Linux and ProgramData%\dynatrace\oneagent\log for Windows. I do not believe every possible kind of Anomaly is documented anywhere but you can take a look at your OneAgent logs to get a better understanding of your environment.

Thanks
