Entity Metric Graphs Report

Daniel Odievich edited this page Aug 18, 2020 · 27 revisions

Overview

Entity Metrics report shows graphs for all Metrics for Application, Tiers, Nodes, Business Transactions, Backends, Service Endpoints, Errors and Information Points for APM Applications.

The report graphs are only produced for Entities that had some metric activity (HasActivity=True in EntityMetrics report).

The sets of metrics are driven by EntityMetricsExtractMapping.csv. See Metric Sets for more information.
