dynaTrace 5.6 Documentation
1. Enterprise Grade UEM for Your Mobile Offerings
There are different ways for your users to interact with your system. Besides using on their desktops, they may also traditional web applications
use or on one or more mobile devices. dynaTrace provides a for mobile apps mobile web sites single user experience management solution
all these scenarios, helping you to meet your end users' expectations.
Mobile App ADK
An Industry First: Hybrid Mobile App Support
Many vendors rely on like PhoneGap to build a single HTML5 and JavaScript based mobile app that runs on multiple hybrid app frameworks
platforms and leverages all device capabilities. The drawback to this approach is obvious: Web technologies bring additional risk of performance
problems, making user experience management even more important.
The Mobile App ADK provides an easy-to-use JavaScript interface for monitoring user actions within the WebView control. All web requests are
tagged automatically. Moreover, the Mobile App ADK is now fully integrated with the JavaScript agent , so page actions that occur within a
WebView are now merged with other mobile actions into the mobile visit.
Mobile App Monitoring Without Code Changes
Auto-Instrumentation for Android (soon also available for iOS) offers an easy means of injecting the Mobile App ADK into your existing apps. It re
by automatically adding the instrumentation for lifecycle actions and network request tagging. duces the complexity of manual instrumentation
It even gives you the power to instrument apps that were created by without touching the source code. If you develop your app 3 party vendors
rd
in-house, thats even better: auto-Instrumentation fits perfectly into your application lifecycle.
Auto-Instrumentation for Android
Get to the Root Cause of Crashes and Errors
Crash reporting is not enough. Every developer knows that there are many conditions that may not crash an app yet still pose problems. The
Mobile App ADK lets you capture exceptions and errors that may indicate that something is going wrong, regardless of whether or not your app
handles them without crashing.
When it comes down to analyzing crashes and errors, dynaTrace tells you exactly what the user did in the moments leading up to the error.
Would you like to know if those users that experience crashes are on or ? The Mobile App ADK captures this jailbroken rooted devices
information along with a rich set of other attributes like application version and screen orientation.
Crash reports on iOS are most valuable when they are properly . The iOS ADK now supports on-device-symbolication and even symbolicated int
like HockeyApp. egrates with other crash reporting tools
Understand Network and Server Impact on Mobile Applications
Ever wonder where latency originates from when a user waits for a mobile action to complete? The Mobile App ADK measures the time spent
waiting for network requests from the application side, while the web server agent measures the same request from the server side, helping you
to understand the impact that network and server side performance has on your user experience.
The breakdown of client, network, and server wait times for web applications has also been improved to be consistent with the new visualization
for mobile applications, assuring that you have . comparable metrics across web and mobile users
2.UEM for the Web: Easier and Optimized
Improved Out-of-the-Box Experience
dynaTrace 5.6 comes with pre-configured business transactions that let you monitor the response times of your user actions. Timings are divided
intuitively by client type and action name. The UEM have also been to make setup easier. Also, if for some configuration dialogs reworked
reason you cannot install a web server agent, the will help you configure the JavaScript agent to your needs and add it manual injection wizard
to your web application.

Ensure That Your CDN Does What You're Paying Them to Do
dynaTrace lets you distinguish between 3 party requests and requests that were sent to your content delivery network, providing you with the
rd
insight you need to confirm that your CDN investment is making a difference. Simply configure the domains of your CDN to automatically identify
any problems.
Improved JavaScript Agent Uses Less Overhead and Bandwidth
The of the JavaScript Agent has been compared to the previous release, which will help you save bandwidth. Also, an size reduced by 30% over
for complex pages with a high number of DOM elements ensures that the JavaScript Agent won't impact user head reduction of up to 70%
experience, even with extremely complex pages.
An often requested improvement is the sending of captured data within the of the signal. This feature is now POST BODY dynaTraceMonitor
enabled by default, but it can be disabled if necessary, for example for web servers. IIS 6
The Best of Both Worlds: Leverage dynaTrace UEM with DC-RUM
With the new UEM integration of dynaTrace and DC-RUM, you can now enrich the passive network-protocol analysis-based information provided
by DC-RUM with the agent-based information collected by dynaTrace. dynaTrace UEM data is integrated into the DC-RUM Central Analysis
Server and user actions are assigned to the business hierarchy. This provides another monitoring perspective that supplements DC-RUM with:
CDN and third-party content impact on performance
Web 2.0 (XHR calls), AJAX readiness
Visit recognition
W3C navigation timing metrics

3.Pinpoint Bottlenecks in Big Data Environments

With the newest release of dynaTrace we further and ease of analyzing your deployments. New with the latest expand the insight Hadoop
release is a Hadoop-focused dashboard that displays the core information of any Hadoop cluster: and . It delivers a quick overview of Jobs Tasks
the performance of different jobs in relation to users running jobs and the time it takes to complete jobs.
As such its a great starting point for getting to the root cause of performance issues. With this release we've made it even easier to drill down to
hotspots or, when necessary, to the method level to detect the root cause of slow or failing jobs. Basically we allow you to slice and dice your
Hadoop cluster anyway you want, be it , HDFS behavior, or any other Hadoop related metric. job distribution cluster utilization,
Visualize Tasks and Users in Real-time
Just monitoring Hadoop processes and daemons is not enough. With direct correlation of map and reduce tasks and their related JVMs to the use
, , , and driving those JVMs, we allow you to directly analyze who and what is utilizing your cluster resources, empowering rs pools queues jobs
you to manage consumption and even build charge-back models for your Hadoop environment.
Hadoop MapReduce
Ensure Optimum HDFS Locality
Two of the major advantages of Hadoop and HDFS are that the data that needs to be processed is stored closely to where processing occurs and
that HDFS breaks large data sets down into small pieces and distributes them across your cluster. This is great, but how can you ensure that the
distribution is optimal? How can you identify the pieces that failed and had to be reprocessed? More importantly, what was the impact of those
failures on the entire map reduce process? With the newest version of dynaTrace, you get all this information and more with our new HDFS
. dashboard

Extended Big Data and NoSQL Technology Support

We have once again increased our support for various Big Data technologies; this includes support for the newest Java Driver for Datastax CQL3
Cassandra and support for Cassandra. Apache Commons Daemon
Additionally, we've added an all new Sensor for , guaranteeing full product integration, and we updated our support to include HBase Mongo DB

Fully Leverage Business Transactions With Session Variable Capturing
To understand what happens inside your PHP applications, you need to capture domain specific data like the number of articles in or the value of
a user's shopping cart. This is now possible by capturing session variables in the PHP server sensor. Combined with the powerful concept of
business transactions, you can now see how performance and user satisfaction impact your business success.
Improved Visibility into DB, WordPress, and PHP 5.5
Although MySQL is the most commonly used database with PHP applications, there are also drivers for other databases. New database sensors
for native Oracle and PostgreSQL database drivers have been added and aPDO sensor pack now brings full visibility into PDO accessed
databases, includingMySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, Firebird, Informix, Oracle, ODBC, FreeTDS, Sybase, Microsoft SQL Server,SQL Azure,
and more. IBM DB2, CUBRID, 4D SQL, Cassandra,
In addition, if you are running WordPress, you can start with our out-of-the-box WordPress sensor to get metrics for the most important
WordPress methods and functions. PHP 5.5 was released over the summer and is fully supported with this release.

5. Easier Rollout and Safer Administration

Based on customer feedback we have improved the navigation for our out-of-the-box dashboards and dashlets. These changes have resulted in
significant productivity and ease of use enhancements.
On Demand Activation and Rollback for Critical FixPacks
FixPacks are now listed separately from Plugins, and we provide a full history of all installed FixPacks. Based on this history you can Activate/De
on the dynaTrace Server. It is also now possible to install a FixPack while postponing the FixPack's activation until later (for activate any FixPack
example, in situations when restart of affected dynaTrace components is only possible from a certain maintenance window). FixPack handling has
never been easier!
FixPack Installation and Removal
6. PurePath for zOS
Leverage Compuware Abend-AID Fault Management for Efficient CICS Exception
Analysis
The dynaTace CICS Agent automatically detects abends (abnormal ends) for all your CICS programs. Abends are captured and reported within
PurePaths as exceptions. The new makes it easy to drill down into the Abend-AID integration of dynaTrace and CompuwareAbend-AID
Report of any particular exception (abend) for detailed code-level analysis. This eliminates the manual effort of time-consuming and
cross-referencing PurePath CICS exceptions with corresponding abends on the mainframe. Abend-AID is Compuware'sindustryleading
mainframe application failure resolution solution.

Abend-AID Fault Analytics Integration

Save MIPS on Your Mainframe
In this release, the footprint of dynaTrace on zOS has been significantly reduced. This was achieved with afundamental re-tuning and
re-architecting of the data collection model for the zOS Agents. The zOS Unix Agent (previously zDC USS
Agent), which still resides on zOS, can now be extended using the optional dynaTrace z Remote Agent whic
h is hosted in distributed environments including Windows, Linux, AIX and z/Linux to reduce expensive data
processing on zOS. It's still possible to configure the zOS Unix Agent to process all data on zOS and
communicate directly to the dynaTrace Collector. In this scenario the dynaTrace z Remote Agent isnt required.

Implemented Requests From Our User Community
Based on suggestions and discussions in the forum of theAPM Community, we have Product Feedback and Enhancement Requests
implemented the following enhancement requests in this release:
Multiple Y-axises in charts

Clearer labeling for XLS Report columns

Historical data reporting from deleted application definitions
Custom session names for storepurepath REST calls
Chart overlays for time periods
Exclusion of traffic from some user agents for UEM
Filtering of non-site generated third-party resources
Use of official certificates for WebStart client
Additional Improvements and Changes
Apart from the major enhancements described above there have been dozens of other enhancements that make dynaTrace easier to use and
more productive in many new ways. Here are the most important improvements:
dynaTrace is now on Java 7
Due the fact that Oracle won't deliver additional security updates for Java 6, . Since all dynaTrace components are now optimized forJava 7
Java 7 utilizes different memory management, it is recommended that youincrease the maximum available memory of the dynaTrace Server
. The maximum recommended memory settings for the dynaTrace Server have been increased to 14GB. and Collector by about 20%
Test Automation -Parallel Test Execution
Using this unique id, the dynaTrace Server can now distinguish between parallel test executions. You no longer need to set test information
across different agent groups.
Automated Memory Dumps and Incident Downtime
The dynaTrace Server offers several REST interfaces for managing memory dumps (for example, create, get, delete, post process of status of
memory dumps).
Incident downtime can now also be fully managed via the dynaTrace Server REST interface including functionality like list, add, update, or delete
incident downtime.
Database Connection Aggregation
By turning on "Statement Aggregation" in the JDBC/ADO.NET sensor properties, PurePaths now not only contain aggregated summaries of
database statements, but alsoaggregated summaries of database connection acquisitions (such as Java getConnection()). This significantly
reduces the communication between Agents and Server and the overall length of PurePaths, thus providing an overhead reduction for these
sensors. We highly recommend that you turn this setting on for production environments or if you have long PurePaths due to database
statements. For newly created system profiles this setting is turned on by default.
Ensure Maximum File Handles Setting on Linux
To prevent stability issues on certain Linux systems, the dynaTrace Server now validates that the maximum number of open files is set to at least
2048. If necessary, adjust this setting before upgrading to dynaTrace 5.6
Continuous Transaction Storage is Optimized for dynaTrace Server Throughput by Default
Continuous Transaction Storage in mode prevents the caching of transactional information in "Optimize for dynaTrace Server throughput"
memory. This reduces garbage collections on the dynaTrace Server and increases throughput by up to 25%.This mode is now enabled by
default. this DC-RUM integration doesn't support mode. Please switch to "Optimize for user triggered
when using the DC-RUM integration. transaction analysis"

dynaTrace Support Levels and End-of-Life Policy
Compuware is committed to providing effective and reliable support for dynaTrace on all supported platforms and technologies. This includes
communicating early about the planned end of life for a given version as well as providing manageable upgrade paths for even the largest
deployments. Typically we support the last two minor versions (now 5.0 & 5.5) as well as the last minor version of the previous major version
(currently 4.2). This ensures that clients can always stay on a well supported version of dynaTrace, even if the upgrade of large systems with
various organizational challenges can take a long time to plan and execute. If you have any questions, our Enablement Services Team can assist
you toensure a smooth and predictable upgrade to a new version of dynaTrace, .
