The Dynatrace AppMon monitor provides information on the availability and performance of software applications and the impact on user experience measured by Dynatrace AppMon, an APM (Application Performance Management) tool.

Dynatrace AppMon dashboards and dashlets

Using Dynatrace AppMon's dashboards and dashlets you can get insights into your full application stack, in the form of deep transaction tracing, synthetic monitoring, real user monitoring, and network monitoring.

A dashboard represents a specific view of one or more Dynatrace AppMon data sources. A dashboard is comprised of dashlets, the building blocks of a dashboard that contain specific types of data (in the form of a graph or data tables).

Set up the Dynatrace AppMon monitor

1. Prerequisites

   For the supported server versions, see the Integration with non-Micro Focus products section of the System Requirements.

2. Configure the Dynatrace AppMon monitor from the monitor profile

   1. From the Performance Center navigation toolbar, click and select Monitors (under Assets).

   2. In the test resource tree, select an existing monitor profile, or click New Monitor Profile and create a new monitor profile.

   3. In the Monitor Profile page, click Add Monitor and select Dynatrace AppMon.

   4. In the Dynatrace AppMon page, enter the server details:

      UI Elements	Description
      Server	The name or IP address of the server whose resources you want to monitor.
      Port	The port number of the Dynatrace AppMon server. Default value: 8020 for Dynatrace AppMon (HTTP) and 8021 for Dynatrace AppMon (HTTPS)
      Use HTTPS	Specify if you are using a secure HTTP connection.
      User Name	The monitored server's user name, if relevant.

3. Click Get Counters to display a list of available metrics and counters per metric from the selected Dynatrace AppMon application, and select the relevant measurements that you want to monitor.

   When you select a dashlet, all measurements of the dashlet are automatically selected.

   For detailed information on the performance measurements that Dynatrace AppMon can monitor, refer to the Dynatrace AppMon documentation.

   To work with Dynatrace AppMon monitors, there should be access from Performance Center to the Dynatrace AppMon Server REST interfaces, which by default use port 8020 (for HTTP) and 8021 (for HTTPS).
