dt.davis.analysis_trigger_delay - evaluation

Platform DQL
1

Hello,

I’ve created a process availability alert and want to delay it by 1 minute.

So, I added property as (enclosed, image 1 and 2).

Now, which is the right way (1 or 2)?

How Dynatrace is going to evaluate this?

Thanks

Hi,

Not sure how you have configured that alert, but I would add delay in the alerting profile.

Best regards

Hello,

That’s a common AP.

So, I cannot touch that. So, added a property on the process availability page.

Thanks

Hi,
Dynatrace expects a time value with unit for this property: dt.davis.analysis_trigger_delay.

So:

  • 1m is valid, interpreted as 1 minute
  • 1 - invalid/ignored or treated incorrectly (no unit --> undefined behavior)

In  Dynatrace evaluates it, Davis waits the specified delay before triggering problem analysis
In your case: waits 1 minute after issue detection
If condition disappears within that time → no problem created

This is not the same as alerting profile delay (it delays Davis analysis itself, not notifications).
