Hi All,
Is it possible to monitor the Windows registry?

Hi @Sahil23 ! Could you precise what do you want to monitor regarding Windows registry?

Hi @jegron ! I am looking to monitor registry for pool manager session

Ok. At the moment, there is no public extension for this use case.

So you need to create a custom python 2.0 extension that reads the value of the windows registry and send the value to Dynatrace as a metric :
