Dear All,

We have problems changing the permission to the Dynatrace directory. The customer changed permission to Dynatrace directory 2750, But after the start of OneAgent, the Dynatrace directory was changed the permission 2755. Please find the attached.

Thank you.

This is to ensure that every instrumented process can write data into log/memorydump/crashreports directories since instrumented processes do not run as the dtuser (or other user running oneagent).
If the instrumented process does not have access to the directories, the instrumentation may fail (seen this) and process will not be deeply monitored.
