Parameters

PropertyTypeDescriptionRequired
Enable Disk Analytics data collection
diskDeviceMonitoringExtensionActive		boolean

The Disk Analytics feature requires an extension to be added to your environment. You can add the Disk Analytics extension to your environment from Dynatrace Hub (<your-dynatrace-url>//ui/hub/ext/com.dynatrace.extension.disk-devices#information). The Disk Analytics extension consumes custom metrics and Davis data units.

After you have added the Disk Analytics extension, you can enable the Data Collection in host or host-group level settings. If you enable the Data Collection without adding the extension the data is only visible in the data explorer.

For details, see Disk Analytics extension documentation.
