How to install oneAgent in infra mode on Kubernetes(EKS) by operator

henk_stobbe — Wed, 14 Jan 2026 10:50:26 GMT

Hello,

To make it simple to run an extension but not activating the full stack OA in K8,

Is this possible by simply modifying the Full-Stack dynakube.yaml to run OA in infra or am I missing something?

Could it be that the oneAgent simply runs in a POD on the HOSTS already in infra mode?

Hi,

You can enable only enable kubernetes-monitoring since it provides already infra metrics.

Or checking Host monitoring deployment.

Best regards

Hello Anton,

Great remark, I will use your advise and only implement the K8 monitoring!

Thx Henk

As per the accepted solution:

Only use host if you really need to monitor the nodes and wanting some extra node level metrics & you are not using bottlerocket. Otherwise, kube only monitoring is more than sufficient, you still get high level node metrics, events and taints.

Example of how to implement the operator below
Host:
dynatrace-operator/assets/samples/dynakube/v1beta5/hostMonitoring.yaml at main · Dynatrace/dynatrace-operator · GitHub

K8s:
dynatrace-operator/assets/samples/dynakube/v1beta5/kubernetesObservability.yaml at main · Dynatrace/dynatrace-operator · GitHub
