Davis in combination with dynatrace entities having a relationship with generic type (=custom topology entity?)

[henk_stobbe]

Hello,

What is the reaction of Davis if you add a relationship between a  dynantrace entity and a generic type?

Will the generic type metrics be part of the  Davis problem analysis?

Hi @henk_stobbe, according to the docs, yes:

When multiple entities are specified for each measurement, Dynatrace selects the most appropriate entity on which it should raise the event. In the case of a host and a process, the measurement presumably relates to the process rather than the host, so the event is raised on the process.

Dynatrace Davis® AI automatically analyzes abnormal situations within your IT infrastructure and attempts to identify any relevant impact and root cause. Davis relies on a broad spectrum of information sources, one of the sources for events in Dynatrace is metric events, that is, events based on metric data.
