Hello,
I'm new to Dynatrace and am trying to create an Infrastructure Overview Dashboard. It looks like I am not able to create a HoneyComb tile that uses multiple Metrics (CPU, Mem, Disk Space, Availability). Is it possible to base the cells on if a Host has a Problem detected or not?
Thanks in advance for any help,
Tom

Hi,
As far as I know, a Honeycomb tile can’t display multiple metrics such as CPU, memory, disk space, and availability in a single visualization. In the current Honeycomb visualization, you map one Value field to each cell, and the Dynatrace Community also confirms that multi-metric Honeycomb isn’t supported in this way.
Here is documentation: Honeycomb visualization
and here you have similar topic: Single Honeycomb Chart
If your goal is to show whether a host is healthy or has a problem, then yes, that is possible. In Dashboards Classic, the filtered Hosts tile already works like that: each hexagon represents a host, green means healthy and red means the host has a problem.
So for an Infrastructure Overview, the usual approach would be either:
In the newer dashboards, Honeycomb can also be driven by DQL based on dt.davis.problems, but it still works as a single-value-per-cell visualization rather than a true multi-metric infrastructure summary.
