What constitutes a single metrics time series (MTS)?

In Splunk Observability, a metric time series (MTS) is uniquely identified by the metric name together with the complete set of dimension key/value pairs attached to the datapoints. All points that share this exact combination belong to the same MTS.

A. Same metric name alone is not sufficient; dimensions must also match.

C. Different dimensions create different MTS even with identical metric names.

D. Ordering of unrelated metrics by time doesn’t define an MTS.
