Hi [@dynatrace A.](https://answers.dynatrace.com/users/6185/view.html)

Did you try the JMX/PMI extension editor in order to add custom metrics for example :

Following what @Yos N has shown you, you can proceed by creating a custom tile selecting the following _category_ of metric:

In my case I used this kind of representation:

and the final result in dashboard is this:

Hope it will be usefull
