Possibilities of Monitor Kubernetes on Dynatrace Managed via Cluster ActiveGate

agylpradipta — Fri, 03 Nov 2023 04:07:39 GMT

Hello All, I would like to install OneAgent via menu Deploy Dynatrace -> Install OneAgent -> Kubernetes / Openshift.

I have condition as follows:

- 1 Dynatrace Managed Cluster

- 1 Cluster ActiveGate with public address

- EKS cluster that cannot directly connect to Dynatrace Managed Cluster

Is it possible to define the Cluster Active Gate address on dynakube.yaml? Or is it another workaround so the EKS could be monitored on Dynatrace Managed Cluster?

Thank you.

Hi @agylpradipta

First of all, you need to install CAG. Then after generating the OA installation will include the IP address to this Active Gate. Your task is to provide network traffic from EKS to CAG according to: https://docs.dynatrace.com/docs/shortlink/sgw-availability#managed-scheme

The agent should automatically establish a connection to the CAG, as its mechanism checks which AG is available and connects to it.
