Burst Traces


What is a Burst Trace?

Burst Traces allow you to go beyond the trace limit on your Agents. For example, if you are already running 2/2 Traces on Agent A, you could use a Burst Trace to add a 3rd Trace (even though you've already reached your limit). Burst Traces can be distributed accross your Agents in any fashion. You can put them all on one Agent, or 3 on one Agent with 3 on a different Agent. These will come in handy if you ever need to do some extensive troubleshooting beyond the Traces you use for long-term monitoring.

How many Burst Traces do I get?

That depends on which plan you have, and the number of Agents you've purchased. Under the Plus at 5 Agents you'll get 6 Burst Traces. The more Agents you add, the more Burst Traces you get. You can view the number of used/available Burst Traces in the Subscription Overview widget.
