This module deploys the Dynatrace OneAgent on Linux, Windows and AIX Operating Systems with different available configurations and ensures the OneAgent service maintains a running state. It provides the resource types to interact with the various OneAgent configuration files and the oneagentctl
- Installs the Dynatrace OneAgent package with the selected parameters and manages its config files.
- By default, enables the Dynatrace OneAgent boot-start, and uses the generated service file as part of the installer to manage the Dynatrace OneAgent service.
- Any running processes prior to installing the OneAgent package will need to be restarted for full instrumentation, a server reboot is another alternative.
This module requires puppet/archive as well as puppet-labs/reboot for server restarts.
For uninstalling the OneAgent on Windows, the puppetlabs-powershell module is required.
To begin using this module, use the Puppet Module Tool (PMT) from the command line to install this module:
puppet module install dynatrace-dynatraceoneagentYou will then need to supply the dynatraceoneagent class with two critical pieces of information.
- The tenant URL: Managed
https://{your-domain}/e/{your-environment-id}| SaaShttps://{your-environment-id}.live.dynatrace.com - The PaaS token of your environment for downloading the OneAgent installer
Refer to the customize OneAgent installation documentation on Dynatrace Supported Operating Systems This module uses the Dynatrace deployment API for downloading the installer for each supported OS. See Deployment API
To have Puppet install the OneAgent, declare the `dynatraceoneagent' class:
class { 'dynatraceoneagent':
tenant_url => 'https://{your-environment-id}.live.dynatrace.com',
paas_token => '{your-paas-token}',
}When you declare this class with the mandatory options, the module:
- downloads the required binaries needed to install the OneAgent on the target host
- Installs the OneAgent with the default installation parameters: --set-infra-only=false, --set-app-log-content-access=true
- Applies any specified configuration via the oneagentctl
- Ensures the Dynatrace OneAgent service is running and enabled.
Default OneAgent install parameters defined in params.pp as a hash map: --set-infra-only=false, --set-app-log-content-access=true
class { 'dynatraceoneagent':
tenant_url => 'https://{your-environment-id}.live.dynatrace.com',
paas_token => '{your-paas-token}',
}The required version of the OneAgent must be in 1.155.275.20181112-084458 format. See Deployment API - GET available versions of OneAgent
class { 'dynatraceoneagent':
tenant_url => 'https://{your-domain}/e/{your-environment-id}',
paas_token => '{your-paas-token}',
version => '1.181.63.20191105-161318',
}Set the verify_signature parameter to true if the module should verify the signature of the OneAgent Linux/AIX installer prior to installation. If set to true the module will download the dynatrace root cert file to download_dir default value from the URL default value set for download_cert_link and use it for verification. If the verification fails, Puppet will attempt to delete the installer file downloaded by the puppet/archive module causing a failure on the remaining tasks.
class { 'dynatraceoneagent':
tenant_url => 'https://{your-environment-id}.live.dynatrace.com',
paas_token => '{your-paas-token}',
verify_signature => true,
}Download OneAgent installer to a custom directory with additional OneAgent install parameters and reboot server after install should be defined as follows (will override default install params):
class { 'dynatraceoneagent':
tenant_url => 'https://{your-environment-id}.live.dynatrace.com',
paas_token => '{your-paas-token}',
version => '1.181.63.20191105-161318',
download_dir => 'C:\\Download Dir',
reboot_system => true,
oneagent_params_hash => {
'--set-infra-only' => 'false',
'--set-app-log-content-access' => 'true',
'--set-host-group' => 'PUPPET_WINDOWS',
'INSTALL_PATH' => 'C:\\Test Directory',
}

This module supports the oneagentctl which can be used to apply configurations as well as add/change metadata during or after the installation of the OneAgent.
class { 'dynatraceoneagent':
tenant_url => 'https://{your-domain}/e/{your-environment-id}',
paas_token => '{your-paas-token}',
host_group => 'APACHE_LINUX',
host_metadata => ['Environment=Dev', 'Organization=D2P', 'Owner=joe.doe@dynatrace.com', 'Support=https://www.dynatrace.com/support/windows'],
host_tags => ['ApacheHost', 'Gdansk', 'role=fallback', 'app=easyTravel'],
hostname => 'apache.puppet.vm',
log_monitoring => false,
log_access => false,
infra_only => true,
}Use the oneagent_communication_hash parameter to change OneAgent communication settings during/after installation:
class { 'dynatraceoneagent':
tenant_url => 'https://{your-domain}/e/{your-environment-id}',
paas_token => '{your-paas-token}',
oneagent_communication_hash => {
'--set-server' => 'https://my-server.com:443',
'--set-tenant' => 'abc654321',
'--set-tenant-token' => 'abcdefg123456790',
'--set-proxy' => 'my-proxy.com',
},
}It is recommended that any settings that can be configured via the installation parameters are used before resorting to the oneagentctl, see REFERENCE.md for supported parameters.
