Database Monitoring Metrics
This document describes metrics collected by the Database Agent. It shows the path to the metric from the main Splunk AppDynamics menu down to the relevant branch of the Metric Browser tree. Some of these metrics are displayed in the Database Visibility user interface and so are also documented with the name of the window, column, section, and metric name.
The Metric Browser window name uses the following format:
- Metric Browser - application_name: When you access the Metric Browser from Applications.
- Metric Browser - Database Monitoring: When you access the Metric Browser from Infrastructure.
For most types of metrics in the browser, you can click any of the points in the graph to view more information about the metric observed at that point in time. The information shown includes the metric identifier, date and time of the observation, along with any of the following values relevant to the metric:
- Obs (observed value): the average of all data points seen for that interval. For a cluster or a time rollup, this represents the weighted average across nodes or over time.
- Min: the minimum data point value seen for that interval
- Max: the maximum data point value seen for that interval
- Sum: the sum of all data point values seen for that interval.
- Count: number of observations aggregated in that one point. For example, a count of 5 indicates that there were 5 1-minute data points aggregated into one point.
