⚠️ WARNING ⚠️️: Possible breaking changes and warnings - PLEASE READ before upgrading:

This version requires a minimum Dynatrace version of 1.338.0 and a minimum EEC version of 1.333.0.
This version includes a potentially breaking change for Dynatrace on Grail.
- With the inclusion of OpenPipeline processing rules, any metrics ingested from the extension will be processed by a dedicated OpenPipeline pipeline instead of the default pipeline.
- This means that any created custom dynamic rules will no longer be used on metrics ingested from the extension. If you want to keep enforcing them, please create pipeline groups.
- Additionally, some field names are handled differently in OpenPipeline, e.g. capitalization. Please double-check any custom dashboards and alerts you have created for this extension.
- You must opt-in to OpenPipeline configuration via Settings API – see the documentation.

New in this version:

Smartscape on Grail. This extension will populate new Smartscape nodes and edges via OpenPipeline extraction.
Added feature set metadata for recommended metrics.

⚠️ Breaking change

The semantic of the hyperv.host.disk.iops metric updated to fix an issue where it reported the sum of read and write data size instead of disk operations. As a result, this metric values lose continuity after the upgrade. Other metrics are not affected by this change.

Improved in this version

Resolved an issue with Host CPU utilization metric not matching the value visible on the Hyper-V console.
Improved detection of elevated-privileges user.
Proper feature-set assignment of all the metrics that were sitting under no feature set.

Hyper-V extension release notes

Full version history

3.0.9

Published Thu Dec 4 2025

Patch level changes

Expire virtual machines so they don't appear on multiple hosts after a VM has been migrated
Clean up the DB to avoid re-ingesting existing datapoints

3.0.7

Published Thu Aug 28 2025

Patch level changes

Fixed an issue with improper filtering when the Hyper-V host is not part of a cluster or fails to retrieve the cluster name
Refreshed alert definitions

3.0.5

Published Fri Aug 08 2025

⚠️IMPORTANT CHANGES

This extension release requires Dynatrace cluster version 1.313 or later.
The extension now runs with elevated privileges, which requires editing the extensionsuser.conf to allow the extension to run with such privileges. In return, you get much improved scalability and stability of the monitoring. See the tile text for more details.
Breaking change this upgrade will require recreation of the monitoring configurations.

New features

Added the ability to interpret entity filters as an allow or deny rule, which simplifies filtering configuration and makes it more flexible.
The dt.security_context attribute is now propagated to all entities created by the extension. When enabling entity access control based on dt.security_context ensure you set the Grail security context destination property to dt.security_context.
Enabled the extension to present the Dynatrace Platform (a.k.a. Gen3) entity details screens in the future platform apps that will expect these screens.

2.2.39

Published Tue Jun 24 2025

Patch level changes

Stated the requirement that Windows user account who runs the extension requires Read and Write access to the Windows TEMP directory.

2.0.12

Published Mon Feb 26 2024

New features

This release introduces an important change Hyper-V extension requires local activation now (i..e. activation on an OneAgent-instrumented host).
Previous releases allowed remote installation (i.e. activation on an ActiveGate), but because of Hyper-V specifics, this very often caused permission issues that severely limited extension functionality and weren't solvable. So anyway - we have been advising you to move to local activation. Now it's the only way to activate this extension.

Patch level changes

Additionally, this release fixes some issues with filtering monitored entities.
