How to unlock sessions and check if sessions are locked
Hi,
The read in dynaTrace documentation that "If the size of the stored sessions exceeds the quota, the dynaTrace Server will delete the oldest unlocked sessions first until things are fine again."
Could you please let me know how to check whether the sessions are unlocked or no and how to unlock sessions just in case they are locked.
This is to avoid the error incase all the sessions are locked and dynaTrace cant free up the space
If you open the Session Browser Dashlet - or simply double click on the "Session Storage" node in your Cockpit you will get an overview of all Stored Sessions. You will see which sessions are locked by looking at the column that displays a lock symbol. Via the Context Menu you can lock/unlock a session
We are doing a weekly excercise of this one. Is there any way we could schedule some task to do this exercise in an automated way ?
There are some REST interfaces that allow you to deal with sessions, e.g: store or download them: Sessions (REST)
There is none yet that allows you to unlock a session or remove it. What you could do is keep them unlocked from the start and periodically download these sessions automatically using the REST interface. That ensures that you have them stored in a safe place and allows dynatrace to clear them via the existing regular cleanup task
