New features and enhancements

"Log Monitoring" has been renamed "Log Analytics"

Infrastructure Observability | Log Analytics

Log Monitoring has been renamed Log Analytics to better reflect the capabilities of the feature. All functionality, features, and user experience remains unchanged.

Additionally, we added Syslog ingestion with ActiveGate in the Extend log observability list.

Log metric limit

Infrastructure Observability | Log Analytics

The log metric limit is updated as per below:

  • 100,000 (1,000 per pipeline x 100 pipelines) for Log Management and Analytics powered by Grail with OpenPipeline.
  • 1,000 for Log Management and Analytics powered by Grail without enabled OpenPipeline.
  • 50 in other cases.

New attributes in Windows event logs

Infrastructure Observability | Log Analytics

Added two new attributes, User name and Keywords, both from Windows event logs, to Log Viewer and as matchers in an ingest configuration.

Command line reporting for processes

Infrastructure Observability | Hosts

The Command line property is now available for all processes reported by OneAgent.

JMX Gauge metrics support stat counter

Infrastructure Observability | Hosts

JMX Gauge metrics now support stat counter. By default, Gauge metrics will act as before.

To set them to stat_counter mode, use:

optionEnableGaugeStatCounterJava=true

Resolved issues

General Availability (Build 1.305.98)

The 1.305 GA release contains 25 resolved issues.

Apache

  • Fixed an Apache error log instrumentation issue where a log line was repeated several times. (OA-38829)

Extensions framework

  • Fixed permissions issues causing the filesystem monitoring extension to malfunction. (DAQ-3733)

General

  • Fixed reporting of the following metrics: `dt.runtime.nodejs.eventloop.utilization`, `dt.runtime.nodejs.eventloop.active_handles`, `dt.runtime.nodejs.memory.total`, and `dt.runtime.nodejs.memory.used`. (OA-39000)
  • Fixed issue with DNS resolution in SNMP Traps extension. (DAQ-2483)
  • The `device.name` attribute is added to SNMP Trap-generated Log Events. (DAQ-2559)
  • Fixed temporarily missing MIB translation for metrics from SNMP Traps extensions. (DAQ-2848)

Logging module

  • Windows Log Events are no longer omitted when no valid event log provider is installed. (OA-39519)
  • Added additional diagnostic for Event Log Processing. (OA-38486)

Mainframe

  • Fixed SQL Fetch being disabled due to a bad or missing DB alias. (OA-39266)
  • Resolved issue causing a zRemote crash. (OA-39657)
  • Resolved an issue in which the zRemote was running out of internal buffers due to a performance regression. (OA-37638)
  • Resolved an issue in which CICS Regions were not initializing properly due to excessive config messages sent from the zRemote. (OA-37884)

Network module

  • Fixed a networkagent crash on Windows that occurred when the Npcap filtering driver was absent on the host or could not be initialized. (OA-39112)

OS module

  • Deep-monitored GraalVM Native Image processes are now properly reported to Dynatrace. (OA-38539)
  • Fixed OS Agent freezes during the detection of containers in an environment with AquaSec installed. (OA-38093)
  • OS technologies (such as Windows System) are no longer reported for non-OS type processes. (OA-40041)
  • Changed the CPU saturation chart from showing idle CPU to showing CPU usage. (OA-38230)
  • DB2 Java processes are now reported separately from other DB2 processes. (OA-40321)
  • Fixed an issue that started with OneAgent version 295, which introduced uppercase letters being replaced with lowercase in dimension keys for host-level resource attributes. With this fix, OneAgent allows for uppercase characters again. As all observability signals (such as logs and metrics) produced by OneAgent are enriched with host-level resource attributes, this fix may affect configurations based on host-level resource attributes, such as log ingest rules, log metrics, log events, or saved queries. (OA-39327)
  • Incorrectly formatted entries in the process blocklist configuration are skipped. (OA-38343)

Java

  • Java heap and GC metrics are now reported reliably when the application uses ZGC. (OA-39185)
  • When using the OkHttp library, adding interceptor logic that also makes synchronous OkHttp calls no longer leads to a NullPointerException. Instead, only the outermost call (outside of the interceptor) is considered for tracing purposes, and any other inner calls are ignored. (OA-34124)

.NET

  • Improved compatibility of the OneAgent .NET code module with the .NET Framework app domain loader optimization feature. (OA-38299)

PHP

  • Resolved an issue with PHP FPM support that caused timeouts of web requests. (OA-39317)

Go

  • Fixed a potential crash with the `golang.org/x/net/http2` package for HTTP/2 web servers. (OA-40155)
