To help you understand and optimize your users' journeys through your applications, we've introduced funnel charting–the ability to query and visualize conversion funnels using user session queries.
- Improve user experience with more visibility into CDN-related HTTP errors (Part 1)
Everyone is doing HTTP error monitoring these days. The question is, are you doing it the right way? If you think your web server logs are showing you all your HTTP errors, you're probably wrong. You're likely missing a lot.
- Start monitoring your web application’s availability with one click
Real User Monitoring (RUM) is one of the building blocks of Dynatrace Digital Experience Monitoring and the only way to monitor your users’ experience. Another building block is Synthetic Monitoring, which adds two additional and important use cases that are hard to cover with RUM. Availability monitoring—Is my application working 24 x 7? Performance baseline […]

- Next generation Dynatrace Davis AI becomes the default causation engine
In today’s increasingly complex environments, it’s simply impossible for a human operator to manually follow the highly dynamic nature of transactions within microservices and serverless functions. Even the best baseline approaches come with a tiny percentage of false-positive alerts, the number being directly proportional to the number of components you’re monitoring. Back during Perform 2019, […]

- Latest management zone update improves collaboration for Synthetic Monitoring
Dynatrace management zones provide an effective means of collaborating across teams by enabling you to define fine-grained access control to specific segments of monitoring data. Synthetic monitors (both HTTP and browser) can be assigned to management zones based either on their names or tags. Until now, users had to have the Change monitoring settings permission […]

Receive notifications when your Cluster ActiveGates become outdated
Cluster ActiveGates serve various purposes in large-scale deployments. A Cluster ActiveGate acts most commonly as a proxy that routes traffic between externally deployed Dynatrace OneAgents and your cluster. Cluster ActiveGates are also used for Synthetic Monitoring and Real User Monitoring. As Cluster ActiveGate is a critically important component of your deployment, it's important that it remains up-to-date with the latest features and security improvements. Since version 1.182, Cluster Management Console provides the following notifications when Cluster ActiveGates become outdated:
-
Warning icon on respective tiles and a warning banner beneath the menu bar when a Cluster ActiveGate is more than 5 versions behind the cluster version
-
Error status on respective tiles and an error banner beneath the menu bar when a Cluster ActiveGate is earlier than version 1.154
To update a Cluster ActiveGate, download the installer from Cluster Management Console and run the installation. For more information, see How to install a Cluster ActiveGate.
What's next?
In upcoming releases we'll enable a single-click update option for Cluster ActiveGate and automatic updates, to save you time and effort. Read Environment ActiveGates can now be updated with a single click on our blog to learn about this feature, which is already available for Environment ActiveGates.
Other changes
- Managed JVM-based services were updated with
-Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 -Dsun.jnu.encoding=UTF-8arguments during startup to better support logging messages. - Insufficient disk space cluster event message was updated. Every time it is triggered, it sends an e-mail notification to cluster administrators.
- For large LDAP deployments, the configuration test was optimized to provide feedback in a reasonably short time.
- Upgrade time of a single-node cluster deployment was improved.

| Component | Resolved issues |
|---|---|
| Cluster | 1 |
| ON-PREM | 3 |
| ON-PREM Console | 2 |
| Installer and Upgrade | 1 |
Cluster
- Fixed: user preference for session replay toggle on environment level were not preserved. (APM-198022)
ON-PREM
- "Login failed" event is not generated for log-in failures. (APM-202443)
- User accounts can now be sorted by "Assigned groups". (APM-202681)
- Expired trial environments will now be correctly unblocked when upgrading them to standard environments. (APM-206775)
ON-PREM Console
- Cluster version is now correctly checked during upgrade - necessary for enabling/disabling Log Monitoring free tier. (APM-202729)
- Link from the invitation email should always point to latest GA version, not to the one from email generation time. (APM-204249)
Installer and Upgrade
- "/opt/dynatrace-managed/tmp-bin" is not cleaned anymore if any Dynatrace process using this directory is not about to be restarted during upgrade. (APM-208937)
Dynatrace SaaS General Availability (Build .181)
The Dynatrace SaaS .181 GA release contains 10 resolved issues.
RUM
- Don't consider the RUM default application in application detection for browser monitors. (APM-203087)
- Session replay and rage detection settings are no longer removed with configuration updates via Web Application Configuration rest API. (APM-204148)
- Corrected link to Android instrumentation documentation. (APM-207338)
Cluster
- Fix inconsistencies in count value units. (APM-202244)
- On Azure dashboard - unhealthy services were not marked red on a list of app services and functions. (APM-202734)
- There might have been exception screen displayed in rare cases for .net process. (APM-203288)
- Fix problem with correct identification of PaaS host. (APM-204374)
- Fix scaling problem with plugin-origin charts that contain series based on the same timeseries. (APM-204486)
- DB Insights, most time consuming Oracle statements - per SQL Query graphs would not match the totals displayed for this query in the table row. Graph data would be trimmed to match the UI timeframe. While the table data would match an expanded timeframe covered by the metric store. So the graphs would display less data than was summarized in a table row. The timeframe expansion performed by the metric store is a result of lowering data granularity. Eg if 1-hour granularity is available for a given timeframe and the requested timeframe would not match 1-hour slot boundries exactly, the timeframe would be implicitly expanded by the metric store to cover all the partially matching timeslots. So requesting a 1 hour 30 minute timeframe where 1 hour granularity is available 2 hours' data would be returned. (APM-196732)
