Hi

During testing, Problem based on Log Event Extraction Rules was closed manually by user.

For the next events no problems were created, here are some details of the even:

“properties”: [  
{“key”: “Node\_FQDN”, “value”: “[cubcnapsdfw02r.bpoiberiapre.svcs.hp.com](http://cubcnapsdfw02r.bpoiberiapre.svcs.hp.com)”},  
{“key”: “dt.davis.analysis\_time\_budget”, “value”: “0”},  
{“key”: “dt.davis.analysis\_trigger\_delay”, “value”: “3600”},  
{“key”: “dt.entity.host”, “value”: “HOST-XYXYYX”},  
{“key”: “dt.event.allow\_davis\_merge”, “value”: “true”},  
{“key”: “dt.event.description”, “value”: “Log Source: XXXXX\nMessage: ErrorRecJars - Error XXXX”},  
{“key”: “dt.event.disable\_davis\_merge\_reason”, “value”: “Problem manually closed by user”},  
{“key”: “dt.event.group\_label”, “value”: “Custom alert”},  
{“key”: “dt.event.impact\_level”, “value”: “Infrastructure”},  
{“key”: “dt.event.is\_rootcause\_relevant”, “value”: “true”},  
{“key”: “dt.event.log\_query”, “value”: “log.source= \”/XYZ""},  
{“key”: “dt.event.suppress\_problem”, “value”: “true”},  
{“key”: “dt.event.suppress\_problem\_reason”, “value”: “Due to manual problem close with id P-XXXXX by user XXXXXXX”},  
{“key”: “dt.event.timeout”, “value”: “15”},  
{“key”: “dt.event.title”, “value”: “Log Monitoring - XXXXXXX”}  
],

my question is for how long will Dynatrace apply dt.event.suppress\_problem\_reason: “Due to manual problem close …” is that permanent , if that is a parameter where can I find etc?

thanks

Good morning.

I’m also looking for a way to “un-suppress” problems that were manually closed.

Update:

I temporarily added this Property to my Metric Event.

Once I started getting Problem Alerts again, I removed it.

Hi,

I also have a question regarding this. Has anyone found an answer?  
How long does Dynatrace apply dt.event.suppress\_problem\_reason?
