Measuring time from a pod breaking and recovering in the Dynatrace

[coffee-seeds]

Hello everyone,

I would like to know if with Dynatrace you can check the time from when a Kubernetes pod goes down or crashes and the time it takes to recover. As well as having graphs and/or metrics about it. Could someone help me?

Best regards.

Unfortunately no, that data can be only made available by ingesting custom kn9s logs into Dyantrace. There is no documentation just a theory as of now I can propose if you need the pod lifecycle details through Kn9s event logs.

Currently you can use inbuild metrics to only generate alerts when you see value count increase in no of pods.

You configure a minimum of running process for that PG and a minimum of pods, in this case, a new pod whenever get created an alert that the PG is lower than it should be triggered.
