Log Enrichment

[SureshThakur]

Hi,

We have Kubernetes monitoring enabled by Dynatrace with log monitoring disabled. However, we can see Dynatrace still adding dt.span_id, dt.trace_id etc attributes to the logs of application pod.

 Is there way we can disable the auto enrichment for specific Kubernetes cluster or specific entity.

Regards

Suresh

Hey @SureshThakur , to my knowledge, once OA is ingesting the logs (even if monitoring is disabled), the automatic enrichment takes place which will add those attributes you are referring to: https://docs.dynatrace.com/docs/observe-and-explore/logs/lma-log-ingestion-via-oa/lma-log-data-trans...

How is your Dynakube configured currently? Does only an AG Spec exist in the Dybakube cr yaml or does it also include an OA spec? Example Kubernetes Observability YAML.

Hi @bsnurka ,

Thanks for your response. I got a confirmation from support as well on the same.

For disabling the log enrichment, we have 2 options.

Either disable in the global setting or at process group level. We have set the rule at PG level, and it has worked.
