Alert if kubernetes daily cronjob fails

[sivart_89]

Is there a way to alert if a k8s cronjob fails? This cronjob runs once a day, if it fails we would like to have an alert. Is there an ootb metric for this type of alerting?

Hi @sivart_89,

If you have Kubernetes API integration:

Kubernetes API Monitoring - Dynatrace Docs

Have you tried or tested this built in anomaly detection setting?

or with this metric (or metric expression) you can create a metric event for alerting:

I hope it helps.

Best regards,
