We are experimenting with the CPU numbers for Oracle servers coming back from Oracle Insights both in the UI and v2 API. The numbers that we are getting back are wildly high.
Here is a sample query:
DEBUG:root:Composing the initial Dynatrace V2 API get metrics call - https://xxxxxxxx.live.dynatrace.com/api/v2/metrics/query?metricSelector=builtin%3Atech.oracleDb.cd.c...
QUESTION 1 - Sometimes we see values coming back for CPU in the thousands of %. Why is that? Should we be using both background and foregroung CPU per database?
QUESTION 2 - If Oracle insights is only collecting data at 5 or 10 minute intervals, how does that equate into the data as it is displayed in the UI or pulled via the API, especially if Dynatrace is delivering back 1-minute data.
Any advice on how this metric should be interpreted or handled would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Lou
