Dynatrace offers remote monitoring of IBM iSeries hosts via the IBM iSeries ActiveGate extension. The extension queries your hosts every minute and retrieves key performance data using DB2 services.

The ingested data provides Dynatrace with real-time visibility into host performance through automatically generated visualization tools, dashboards, infographics, and reports. When combined with OneAgent monitoring, you gain the ability to understand how iSeries interacts with the other components in your stack.

IBM releases patches and Technology Refresh packages periodically. These releases include fixes to data aggregation and metric views. Please be sure to use IBM's latest Technology Refresh and cumulative patches.
