The restart, shutdown, and other events are also part of the alarm.

[yangzy]

The restart operation on host and the restart operation of related process will not necessarily affect the business, but I hope this kind of event can also send a warning email. What should I do?

[wolfgang_beer · Accepted solution]

Dynatrace by default alerts on hosts and VMs that shutdown or restart in a non-graceful way or if network connection to the host is generally lost. Dynatrace by default does not alert on graceful host shutdowns (but that will be introduced as a an opt-in in the upcoming release two weeks from now).

If you would like to explicitly alert on process shutdown you have to opt-into process availability alerting that also works for clusters of processes and min. number of instances running.
