  • Product information
  • Release notes

Overview

This Dynatrace extension monitors Sybase Adaptive Server Enterprise's health and performance. It is a remote monitoring solution implemented as an extension for Dynatrace ActiveGates. Metrics are obtained from the Sybase ASE monitoring tables using the Dynatrace JDBC datasource.

This is intended for users, who:

  • Want to monitor the health and performance of their individual Sybase ASE databases
  • Look for a dedicated out-of-the-box dashboard for Sybase Monitoring

This extension enables you to:

  • Monitor Sybase ASE Databases, Devices, IO Controllers, and Cache Pools
  • Monitor database transactions, IO rates, and statement operations
  • Receive alerts on performance and health issues detected in your ASE
  • Take proactive actions based on anomalies detected in the database infrastructure before they affect your applications

Use cases

  • Operational monitoring of your Sybase Adaptive Server Enterprise setup.
  • Monitor resource utilization and receive alerts for detected anomalies; detect anomalies and alert on them.
  • Take pre-emptive measures to avoid service degradations.

Get started

For more information on the installation and configuration, please see Sybase ASE extension in the Dynatrace Documentation.

Details

Compatibility information

  • This extension supports remote monitoring via ActiveGate. It can't be installed on Sybase servers.
  • ActiveGate must be running version 1.300 or higher
  • Network connection between ActiveGate where this extension runs and monitored ASE is required.
  • This extension was tested on and supports Sybase ASE 15.7 and higher.

⚠️ WARNING ⚠️️: Possible breaking changes and warnings - PLEASE READ before upgrading:

  • This version requires a minimum Dynatrace version of 1.338.0 and a minimum EEC version of 1.333.0.
  • This version includes a potentially breaking change for Dynatrace on Grail.
    • With the inclusion of OpenPipeline processing rules, any metrics ingested from the extension will be processed by a dedicated OpenPipeline pipeline instead of the default pipeline.
    • This means that any created custom dynamic rules will no longer be used on metrics ingested from the extension. If you want to keep enforcing them, please create pipeline groups.
    • Additionally, 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.
    • You must opt-in to OpenPipeline configuration via Settings API – see the documentation.

New in this version:

  • Smartscape on Grail. This extension will populate new Smartscape nodes and edges via OpenPipeline extraction.
  • Added feature set metadata for recommended metrics.
  • Introduced new metrics for process-level blocking polls and long-running processes.
