Process and containers

• Process group naming: Naming rules enable you to customize and enhance the default names of your deployed process groups. Naming rules apply to already detected process groups and processes that are active and online.
• Process instance snapshots : If this feature is enabled, Dynatrace examines the most resource-consuming processes running on your host and the processes monitored by Process availability. When a triggering event occurs, metrics reported 10 minutes before and 10 minutes after the event for those processes are sent to the cluster.

• Process availability: This feature allows you to monitor if a minimum number of processes matching the specified monitoring rule are running on your host.

• Process deep monitoring
  • Process group monitoring: Dynatrace OneAgent automatically monitors all process groups detected in your environment.
  • Custom process monitoring rules: Define process monitoring rules if you don’t want to monitor all your processes automatically, or if you need to define an exception for specific processes.
  • Built-in process monitoring rules: Enable or disable built-in monitoring rules. Ex: Do not monitor processes if EXE name equals ‘heart beat’.
• Process group detection
  • Built-in detection rules: Enable or disable process group detection flags. Ex: Automatically detect Spring Boot applications.
  • Simple detection rules: Simple process group detection rules enable you to adapt the default process-group detection logic for deep monitored processes via environment variables or Java system properties.
  • Advanced detection rules: Advanced detection rules are capable to extract additional process group and instance identifier from processes to fine tune the automatic detection logic of OneAgent
  • Declarative process grouping: With declarative process grouping, you can automatically monitor additional technologies.
