What actions can a monitoring admin perform?

The role of a monitoring admin is designed to encompass a range of capabilities that enable effective management of monitoring settings and tools. One of the key actions a monitoring admin can perform is changing monitoring settings. This involves configuring parameters to ensure that the monitoring system aligns with the specific needs of the organization, such as setting thresholds for alerts, defining what metrics to capture, or adjusting data retention policies.

Additionally, monitoring admins have the ability to download OneAgent, which is crucial for implementing the monitoring capabilities of the Dynatrace platform. OneAgent is essential for collecting performance data from the monitored environment, and being able to download and install it is a vital part of the monitoring admin's responsibilities. Their role is centered around actively managing and configuring the monitoring setup rather than having mere read-only access or limited capabilities such as viewing logs or accessing email subscriptions. This approach empowers monitoring admins to take an active role in ensuring that the monitoring system is functioning optimally and is tailored to the needs of the organization.
