Private self-monitoring environment

  • How-to guide
  • 2-min read

If your data privacy requirements are strict or you need full control over data residency and access, you can opt out at any time. Opting out stops sending self-monitoring data to Dynatrace.

Setting up your own self-monitoring environment requires installing OneAgent on your nodes, which consumes Dynatrace licenses.

Opt out of reporting self-monitoring data

To opt out of reporting Dynatrace Managed self-monitoring data, you need cluster administrator permissions.

  1. Sign in to your Dynatrace Managed Cluster Management Console.

  2. Go to Settings to display the Dynatrace Managed settings page.

  3. Select Preferences.

  4. Turn off Dynatrace deployment health monitoring.

If this setting is turned off - Please contact a Dynatrace product expert via live chat within your environment.

Set up your own self-monitoring

You gain additional visibility into your Dynatrace Managed deployment and help Dynatrace product experts troubleshoot your issues. You can also install OneAgents on your Managed Cluster and Environment ActiveGates.

To retain high availability of your self-monitoring data, set up cross-cluster monitoring. For example, have a pre-production Managed Cluster monitor a production Managed Cluster, and vice versa. If one Managed Cluster goes down, you still have access to self-monitoring data to troubleshoot on your own or with Dynatrace support and services teams.
