We are deprecating the classic User sessions page soon and replacing it with a more powerful page for session segmentation. To stay tuned, keep an eye on our release notes.
New in-product assistance (Dynatrace chat)
Starting June 21, 2022, you’ll see a new look and feel while conversing with us using in-product assistance (aka “chat”) from your Dynatrace environment.
Transition to the new system will be automatic and seamless. No action is required on your part.
Any open chats will be converted to support cases automatically, allowing existing conversations to continue over email.
To open a new conversation, or to see an update to a current conversation or support case, select the chat icon in the upper-right corner of the Dynatrace web UI.
If the authentication is active for a user session export and you perform a configuration change, you now always need to re-enter the authentication credentials for security reasons. Also, only HTTPS endpoints are allowed for exporting user sessions.
Because of these changes, we switched the Settings API schema from builtin:elasticsearch.user-session-export-settings to a new one builtin:elasticsearch.user-session-export-settings-v2.
Container pages
Container pages now use the unified analysis framework. You can now extend the container pages with additional data. For more information on unified analysis card injection mechanism, see Extend built-in unified analysis pages.
Note also that starting with Dynatrace 1.247, Docker pages will be replaced by generic container pages.
Feel free to share feedback on the new container pages. Select Share your feedback in any of the container pages to go to the Dynatrace Community feedback channel.
System notifications
With the new System notifications page, admins can monitor and act on notifications related to environment health and licensing that have been communicated through Dynatrace yellow banner messages. If you have admin privileges, you can find the new page by going to System Notifications.
Features and advantages:
The table gathers in one place all of the environment health (for example, OneAgent disk space running low) and licensing (for example, DDU quota running low) notifications formerly displayed as banner messages.
Eliminating the banner messages frees up precious vertical space for displaying your data in Dynatrace.
You can filter the table by severity and message contents.
The blue dot indicates unread/new notifications. The same indicator is displayed in the menu entry.
You can select any or all notifications and clear them with one click.
Notifications automatically expire to prevent the table from growing indefinitely.
Event cards in the root-cause analysis section of the problem page are now grouped by the dt.event.group_label instead of the EventType by default.
Kubernetes deployment page
The Kubernetes deployment page now uses Dynatrace Operator version 0.6.0.
Cloud Automation
The new Add SLO button lets you start the SLO wizard in the context of the entity you're browsing. The pages include Service details, Databases details, or Web applications details.
Service failure detection
Service failure detection settings are now available in the new Settings 2.0 format. To find them, go to Settings, expand Server-side service monitoring, and see the Failure detection section. You can also manage the service failure detection settings using the Settings API. These settings are also available to be used in security policies.
Settings security policies
These previously existing settings are now available to be used in security policies:
TSM metric keys that begin with a number are treated as invalid metric key inputs. (APM-371596)
