WAS DT_CUSTOM_PROP on Solaris

[JorgePozuelo]

We are trying to inject a DT_CUSTOM_PROP on a IBM WebSpereApplication Server. It seems that it doesnt work due to the fact that equals appears on value.

We are doing it using same mechanism used to set DT_HOME

Server > Application servers > [yourprofilename]> Java and Process Management > Process Definition > Environment Entries > New.

Wen we inject it without equals on value, it is received on Dynatrace (but we need key in order to generate automatic tags).

Does anybody know how to do it?

Regards,

Jorge.

I recommend Posting Metadata on the host level which can then always be populated down via tags tot he processes and Service. You can also post the metadata down to those entities as well along with the tags. Here is a doc about it: https://www.dynatrace.com/support/help/how-to-use-dynatrace/hosts/configuration/define-tags-and-meta...
