Dynatrace Associate Cert question with
answers
Mission Control - - Managed customers can use this to access their clusters, check
for system updates
-SaaS Updates - - SaaS updates are done automatically
-ActiveGate - - Proxy between OneAgent and a database, cloud, etc.
-ActiveGate use cases - - Access sealed networks
Large memory dump storage
Collecting large external logs
AWS load distribution monitoring
Monitoring using AG
Virtualized infrastructure
Monitor cloud foundry, Kubernetes
Execute private HTTP monitors
Execute private browsers outside of network
-SaaS Needs This Type of ActiveGate - - None. You can install an environment
ActiveGate if there are security concerns
-Cluster ActiveGate - - Shared between tenants or multiple environments within a
cluster. Remote agents, JS agents, need to communicate with your cluster though a
firewall
-Environment ActiveGate - - an ActiveGate for one specific environment. If one or
more network segments need their own private ActiveGate for whatever reason.
-Environment and Cluster ActiveGates accept incoming ocnnections on this port - -
9999
-Environment and Cluster ActiveGates make outgoing connections to the Dynatrace
Server on this port - - 443
-Customers must do this to make sure ActiveGates work properly - - configure
firewall settings to permit communication through these ports
-ActiveGate installation requirements - - 1 GB Free Disk Space, 1 dual core
processor, 64 bit physical or virtual host (no container), Oracle Java 1.6 or higher
2GB RAM (4GB Recommended)
-Account User - - These are users who are involved in managing account details
such as company addresses, billing, payment information, and user management.
-Account Users - types of user permission groups - - Account Manager, Finance
Administrator, Account Viewer: Support
,-Environment User - - These are users who work with Dynatrace to monitor the
health of the hosts, services, and infrastructure in their application environments.
-Environment Users - types of user permission groups - - Monitoring administrator,
confidential data administrtor, deployment administrator, monitoring viewer, log
viewer
-Account Viewer - - has access to environment consumption data, Help, and
Support. No access to credit card data, invoices, or company/billing address info.
Can't edit groups or assign users to groups.
-Financial Admin - - can enter credit card data and review invoices. Has access to
environment consumption data, Help, and Support. Can't edit groups or assign
users to groups. No access to company/billing address info.
-Account Manager - - has full account access. Can view and edit company data,
enter credit card data, review invoices, create and edit groups, and add users to
groups. Also has access to environment consumption data, Help, and Support.
-Monitoring Admin - - has full environment access. Can change monitoring
settings. Can download and install OneAgent.
-Deployment Admin - - can download and install OneAgent. Has read-only access
to the environment. Can't change settings.
-Confidential data admin - - can view personal data (for example, method
arguments) and configure request-data capture rules.
-Monitoring Viewer - - can access the environment in read-only mode. Can't
change settings. Can't download or install OneAgent.
-Log Viewer - - can access and view the contents of log files. Reserved for users
who need access to sensitive log file data. No other access rights.
-Must have the following to deploy OneAgent - - Dynatrace login, Server Admin
rights, Permissions to restart services, firewall admin rights, disk space
requirements, any necessary ActiveGates installed
-Process Groups - - a logical cluster of processes that belong to the same
application or deployment unit and perform the same function across multiple hosts
-Clustered Services - - Same service in multiple processes - SAME process group
-Separate Services - - Same service in multiple processes - MULTIPLE process
groups
-Merged Services - - Services in the same process group, with the same
technology, but may exist across separate nodes
, -Opaque Services - - Cannot be monitored but can be detected by requests made
by other services
-Key Requests - - You can measure mission-critical requests or functionality, based
on certain text or information or header in a request. You can have custom alerting
thresholds
-Request Attributes - - You can define certain request attributes to allow for
filtering, sorting, and searching in the Dynatrace dashboard.
-Tagging and Alerting - - You can do manual or automatic tagging. Automatic is
better for larger environments
-Davis AI Event Categories in Descending order - - Availability
Error

Resource
Custom Alerts
Information Only Events (no alarms)
-Optional Dynatrace Components - - ActiveGate
Amazon Web Services

PaaS integrations
PaaS: Platforms as a Service
VMware Monitoring
Agentless RUM
Mobile Monitoring
-Synthetic Monitors - - Monitoromplex clickpaths
Used to improve monitoring
Can be filtered by status, type, profile, locations and application
Tells you milliseconds of downtime
Provides root cause analysis display with problems
-What can you use to define a custom service entry point? - - Methods, class or
interfaces as an entry point.
-What is required for a browser clickpath monitor? - - 1. Chrome
2. The Dynatrace Extension
3. Allowing the Dynatrace extension in incognito mode
-After how much time are automated baselines available to the end user? - -
Baseline cube is calculated 2 hours after the app or service is initially detected.
-Automated Baselining - - attempts to figure out the best reference values for
incoming apps and service traffic. Dynatrace AI learns service response times, error
rates and traffic.
