Breaking changes:

⚠️ Possible breaking changes and warnings - PLEASE READ before upgrading to this version ⚠️:

  • This version requires a minimum Dynatrace version of 1.338 and a minimum ActiveGate EEC version of 1.337.
  • This version includes a breaking change for 3rd gen environments:
    • With the inclusion of OpenPipeline pipelines, any logs emitted by this extension will be processed by a dedicated OpenPipeline pipeline instead of the classic pipeline. This means that classic rules will no longer be used on logs emitted by the extension. Please be sure to migrate any you still need to OpenPipeline rules.
    • Some field names are handled differently in OpenPipeline, e.g. capitalization. Please double-check any custom dashboards and alerts you have created for this extension.
    • Any dynamic pipelines that were configured to route metrics or logs coming from this extension will no longer be used as data will be statically routed to the extension-shipped pipeline.
    • Finally, you must opt-in to OpenPipeline configuration via Settings API – see documentation.
  • The new tables feature set introduced with this version is disabled by default and may cause high license consumption if enabled.

Features:

  • Smartscape 2.0 topology supporting, instance, database, table and index nodes.
  • New database metrics added:
    • mysql.databases.queries.count
    • mysql.databases.rows_read.count
    • mysql.databases.rows_written.count
  • The mysql.databases.size metric is now reported in bytes.
  • New tables feature set added with table and index-related metrics:
    • Metrics captured: mysql.tables.*, mysql.indexes.*.
    • Data captured every 15 mins by default, can be configured with Table query interval field.
  • The database schema is collected as a log every 24 hours.
  • New locks feature set added to capture blocking statements as logs.
  • Capture active connections info as logs.
  • Capture execution plans for top queries.
  • Add PII masking for active connections and slow queries.

⚠️ This version requires ActiveGate version 1.337.0 or higher.
