FAQ about specificaition of Dynatrace licensing

1. Does Dynatrace have a grace period after having consumed Host hours purchased?

2. When Host Units exceeds their purchasing after adding RAM to a host, Does Dynatrace stop monitoring the host immediately or give a grace period to urge the customer to purchase additional license?

Hi @Aoki H.

The question depends on your license.

If you connect more host units than your license allows and you are on flexible overage handling, your servers do not get blocked but you get billed in arrears for the overage host units.

without flexible overage, when we connect mote host units than our license allows, will we get blocked, which means there is no grace time?

[gerald_]

If you do not have flexible overage, additional hosts will be blocked. It's a hard limit.

These Flexibles overages are charged basis Host Units or Host unit hours?
