Is there a way to get the DT Client to import an external thread dump? My group is slowly converting all of our environments to use DynaTrace but we still have some that are using other tools. In those other environments we generally create thread dumps using command line (kill -3). is there a way to take these thread dumps and import them into DT so that we can at least use a single client/analysis tool?
Same question would go for heap dumps. Is there a way to import them into DT for viewing and analysis?

No there is not. kill -3 threaddumps do not hold the full information provided by the JVMTI interface and their format also depends on the JVM you are using.
The same for heap dumps, there are just too many different ones.
