Q

How do automated baselines work? What two entities do they work with.

A

Fast changing Value = 5 minute comparisons
if the value doesn’t change = 15 minute sliding window

This is applied to indivdual applications and serverice!!!

Needs 1.5 days or 20% before slowdown and error rate problems

Application and services need a week for traffic spikes/drops

Start to build baselines as little as 2 hours.

Q

How does Dynatrace correlate multiple user actions into one user session?

A

This information is erased when the following occurs:
- The browser is closed
- The user clears their browser cookies
- The user cleans up their local storage

Dynatrace stores information in session cookies and local storage. This enables the correlation of user actions into one user session.

Q

How does synthetic monitoring work for HTTP Monitor? Can you do it on windows?

A

HTTP monitor:
-Uses simple HTTP requests
-Frequency up to 1-minute
-It can be used to check if a website or API endpoint is available
-Executed from an ActiveGate and require a special ActiveGate configuration.

Linux-only

Q

How does synthetic monitoring work for browser monitors? Difference between browser click paths and single-URL-browser monitor

A

Browser Monitors:
-Real Browser (Chrome)
-Run from any of the 70+ Dynatrace global locations or dedicated cluster ActiveGate
-Frequency up to every 5 minutes

Single-URL browser monitor is equivalent of a simulated user visiting the application webpage using a modern, updated web browser.

Browser clickpaths are simulated user visits that monitor the application’s business critical workflows. The Dynatrace synthetic recorder allows to record an exact sequence of clicks and user input.

Q

How is browser info collected? What are the three ways to do it? (RUM Question)

A

JavaScript code is placed in the HTML header to collect web browser data

  1. OneAgent auto does it
  2. Web Server Admin can manually instrument with code from Dynatrace site (deploy page)
  3. RUM Browser Extension (only on Chrome)

A

Data is buffered locally and sent once a minute

23
Q

How to check the ApDex rating for user actions?

A

Under User Action Settings

24
Q

How to monitor SaaS 3rd party apps for RUM?

A

Like office 365, we had to use RUM Browser extension
or put JavaScript code in webserver
or
use OneAgent collects data automatically

25
Q

Is custom anomaly detection available for service/key requests or applications/key user actions?

A

Custom anomaly detection is only available for key user actions

26
Q

Is it possible to have custom service changes applied automatically?

A

Server-side service monitoring,
Deep Monitoring

27
Q

Key user actions do what?

A

Keep data for a longer time frame.
Also update the key performance metrics threshold

28
Q

Mobile Real user Monitoring are instrumented on what apps?

A

Dynatrace also supports RUM on native and hybrid apps.

Instrumentation wizards are available for…
Android
iOS
tvOS
Cordova

A

Technology aligned metrics include:
Process CPU
JVM metrics
AppServer metrics
System performance
Web server requests

32
Q

A
34

36
Q

T or F. OneAgent communication is bi-directional

A

Communication from OneAgent to Dynatrace is outbound only

A process can be identified as running on one unique host, container

37
Q

A

False,
A process group instance is a single process that belongs to a designated process group.
A process can be identified as running on one unique host, container

38
Q

True or False. Speed index is only for load actions?

A

True

39
Q

Q

How do you manage which URLs are grouped in which application?

A

Application segmentation rules

What are application detection rules? Do it work with agentless web apps?

A

Create news application definitions – based on URL or Domain!
Only applies to auto-injected (agent based) web applications

Rules are applied in order – first come first serve

45
Q

What are examples of infrastructure thresholds you can adjust?

Davis automatically detects infrastructure-related performance anomalies like,
High CPU saturation
Memory outages
Low disk-space conditions

Infrastructure monitoring typically uses static thresholds

46

What are external dependencies?

A

External dependencies are services that represent outgoing calls to systems that aren’t monitored in the environment. There are two types of external dependencies, calls to public networks (public IP domains) and calls to unmonitored hosts (internal IP)
