OneAgents will receive the endpoints automatically, just ensure the ActiveGate is reachable from your OpenShift platform. Also , the Kubernetes platform monitoring needs to be then set up manually using Bearer token.

I'd not recommend using this approach anyway, is there any specific reason why you are looking for a deployment without ActiveGate in Open shift?

If you don't use the activegate in Kubernetes deployed and managed by the operator, you need to set up the bearer token for Kubernetes API monitoring (k8s metrics), see https://docs.dynatrace.com/docs/shortlink/guides-k8s-api-monitoring#connect

Main question is :
You want to use your activegate for routing monitoring data?
You want to use your activegate to monitor Openshift via k8s API?
Both?
