• The Datadog plugins allows to integrate Pro.Monitor with Datadog via its cloud API
• Devices, events and metrics discovered by Pro.Monitor will become visible in Datadog
• Predefined dashboards can be downloaded from Datadog market place on Pro.Monitor's page.

• The Datadog plugin will directly connect to your cloud instance by using several API endpoints.
• To configure the plugin, you need to register the parameters below.
• Note: API & Application keys must be generated first on your cloud instance for allowing connection.

If you want to stop the data flow between Pro.Monitor and Datadog, you can deactivate the plugin.

• To create those keys, connect to your datadog instance and open the Organization settings
• Navigate to API keys and Application keys sub menus and create your new keys

• To use a proxy for outgoing HTTP and HTTPS connections, edit bin/setenv.sh file from promonitor server
• Add to the JAVA_OPTS variable the following parameters:
  • -Dhttps.proxyPort=<HTTPS proxy port> and -Dhttps.proxyHost=<HTTPS proxy host>
  • -Dhttp.proxyPort=<HTTP proxy port> and -Dhttp.proxyHost=<HTTP proxy host>

• All alarms produced by Pro.Monitor will be sent to datadog

• All metrics produced by Pro.Monitor will be sent to datadog

Pro.Monitor is using logs interface to send the following data

SAP jobs

• tags:
  • job_name
  • client
  • status
  • start_date
  • end_date
• Example:
  • Mar 16 09:22:48.000 10.222.2.2 SAP_JOBS name:SAP_COLLECTOR_PERFMON_RSHOSTDB client:000 user: status:FINISHED Start:09:22:48 End:09:22:48

• If the tracking is active, the distinct times series sent to Datadog will be recorded
• This gives the possiblility to know how many metrics have been created in datadog
• This also allows to analyze the cardinality of the metrics and fine tune the configuration
• The list of distinct time series can be collected by this HTTP API call:

GET /plugins/statistics/distinct_ts?type=DATADOG

• You can force a set of tags to be always associated to each metric, log and event.
• This can be configured via two ways:

From the plugin menu:

From the properties file:

the file conf/monitoring.properties

• Set the property: plugins.datadog.custom_tags
• Example:
  • plugins.datadog.custom_tags=tag1:val1,tag2:val2

Once set, you must restart Pro.Monitor
