Dynatrace server DB connection
HI
One of our customer observes on there Dynatrace 6.1 server strong use of it's database access (lots of JDBC connections... over 40...).
Is there any existing builin metric provided in the SelfMonitoring SP to monitor it ?
Thanks
Philippe
Hi
Do you mean that they see DB Connections being opened from the Dynatrace Server to the Performance Warehouse Database? Or do you mean you see lots of DB Connections being opened by the application they are monitoring?

Thanks

Hi Philippe,
Dynatrace have no metric for the count of used connections.
dynatrace use the apache jdbc connection pool.The initial size is by default 10.
The maximum size is 50(can be changed with debugflag).
The pool closes connections that are older than 15 minutes and are not in use.
Is the count of the open connection growing over time? Or there are special times where the count is high?

Will check it with the customer.
