Monitoring openshift: is it possible to monitor one project or namespace?
Hi,
Customer is about to install Dynatrace to monitor Openshift 4.2. They are concerned about selective monitoring. I mean, is it possible to install it on a cluster, and only monitor processes/containers for an openshift project or namespace?
By default in Dynatrace you can disable a server that is the host for some layer (application servers of an specific application, for example). But in openshift, disabling a cluster node could mean disabling lots of entities for several projects, even the ones you want to monitor. How is this done? is an all or nothing thing?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Antonio,
It is possible to select which namespace you do and do not want to monitor in Dynatrace. You can find this in the Settings. Select Processes and containers and select Container monitoring.
There you will have the ability to modify the container monitoring rules to address the namespace you would or would not like to monitor.
Best,
Sia

Of course it is possible now! It's done in container monitoring rules settings (Settings -> Process and containers -> Container monitoring):
And you can filter events based on namespace as well:.
Hi @Radoslaw S. sorry to bother. Quick question, is this possible to do via API? or via yaml at the moment of oneagent deployment? Or do it with a tag?
You can open a product idea safely to keep the track of this.
