Team,

I want to build a catalog of Problem Cards that Administrators of Dynatrace should look at. I am wondering if anyone has some that they think might be good candidates?&nbsp; I know every company is different so entries may change depending on what you see in your environment.

**Here are two that I have so far:**

Database connection alerting limit is reached for the tenant “####”

Synthetic private location outage

I hope this helps everyone.&nbsp; Any docs on this would also be good if there are any.

Hi,

As I create these types of dashboards at my clients I also involve them in the process:

- I ask them to point out key business services (I don’t just want to show them the values, but also by doing so I build specific filters for administrators so they don’t have to look for information about will all over the, stack).  
- I necessarily indicate HTTP 5xx and 4xx errors (here be careful, because some applications are designed in such a way that such errors are a normal operation - ah those developers:))  
- It is worth measuring the queues to see if something is queuing somewhere.  
- I often rely on TOP tiles (e.g. WebRequests, etc.), because DT doesn’t always catch that as an error, and that’s valuable information (especially when you’re about to get timeouts).

_Based on this informations, you then quickly build alerts._

That’s just for quick reference:) What technologies do you use on your environment?

Radek

Thanks for info.

We have many technologies and tenants.&nbsp; From an admin side at our company, we look for admin issues like AGs down, Out of licenses,&nbsp;Database connection alerting limit is reached for the tenant.
