  • 1.  Probable Root Cause

    Posted Tue August 20, 2024 12:42 PM

    Hello,

    Has anyone used the Probable Root Cause functionality? I have tried but I haven't been able to see the screens shown in the documentation. Could someone help me?

    Thanks

    Hi Hector - that's great that you're trying to leverage this feature!   We have various teams that are using this feature daily, and saving a lot of time in the diagnosis phase.

    Are you using Instana SaaS, or using self-hosted?    The other question is if you have setup Smart Alerts for your Applications, with the "create incident" toggle enabled.

    Sounds good - that's the right way to go.  We could have a quick virtual chat and go through it with you and your team.  If you can please email me at arthurdm@ca.ibm.com we can go from there - and once we figure out the solution we can post back here for everyone else.

    Hello Arthur,

    Here, it's my Smart Alert Configuration:

    Here, it's my event generated: we cannot see the "Probable root Cause" screen

    And Finally it's the email generated by the incident:

    Thanks a lot.

    Hi Hector,
    We support Probable Root Cause for Incidents generated by Application Smart Alerts. Infra and other Smart Alerts will be supported beyond the Public Preview. Even on App Smart Alerts when there is not enough data or confidence Probable Root Cause is not show. We would like to chat with you if you have some time understand more answer if possible. Thank you.

    Hi Hector, 
    We have only enabled Probable Root Cause for Application Smart Alerts in the public preview. When the data or the confidence is not sufficient we do not display the root cause. Our team will get in touch to follow up on this. Thank you.
