Oracle DB characters AL32UTF8
Hi,
i am going to set a db oracle for Dynatrace Application Monitoring 6.0 and i should know if i can set the following type of character "AL32UTF8".
There is a post that says dynaTrace supports this type of character in earlier versions, but i know in this version.
Thanks,
Regards.
Thanks!!!
Hi,
my 2 cents and grains of salt:
I´m almost certain that the test will tell you AL32UTF8 is incompatible, but the gist is (see Performance Warehouse Administration#RecommendedSettingsfortheDatabase and in the FAQ there):
As long as you don´t use accented characters in measure names / strings stored in the DB you should be fine with UTF8.
Otherwise use a UTF16 character set.

Hi Jose!
Yes, please go ahead with that encoding and make sure, making a connection test before connecting to the database. During this test, also the charset will be tested and will tell you, if any problem with this charset occurs.
Best regards,
