Current limitations

  • Events about problems in Nagios with a duration of less than 1 minute may not be synchronized to Dynatrace because the Nagios is polled each minute or less.

  • Problems in Dynatrace are closed at least one minute after the extension detects the problem has been resolved in Nagios. So it may take at least 2 minutes to close a problem in Dynatrace when Nagios problem is resolved.

  • Ports are not readable from configuration so the Dynatrace custom device has only IP for interconnections with other Dynatrace objects

  • Nagios acknowledges are part of Dynatrace event information, not Dynatrace problem

  • Event properties (Nagios Last check, Nagios Last state change, Nagios Last update) obtain value from the time Nagios plugin poll was executed (Dynatrace problem resend time)

  • Nagios performance metrics are linked to custom devices representing Nagios host but are not displayed on the custom device screen. Performance metrics can be displayed via the data explorer or on the dashboard.
