Hello All, I’m running Dynatrace OneAgent in infra‑only mode and tried to configure custom host properties using the  **--set-host-property** flag, for example: --set-host-property=Environment=NONPROD --set-host-property=Owner=Container-Orchestration However, these properties are **not showing up under the “Properties and tags” section** of the host overview in Dynatrace. ![Gyanendra1_1-1767708964097.png](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/dynatrace/original/3X/d/c/dc474dcbdd17146afe9fe945ead6581fef478bcb.png) My questions are: 1. Is this the expected behavior for **infra‑only mode** (i.e., custom host properties not supported)? 2. If so, what’s the recommended way to surface these properties in Dynatrace when using infra‑only agents? 3. Has anyone successfully used **--set-host-property**  in infra‑only mode, or is this feature limited to full‑stack deployments? ![Gyanendra1_1-1767708964097.png](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/dynatrace/original/3X/d/c/dc474dcbdd17146afe9fe945ead6581fef478bcb.png) Any guidance or confirmation would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! ---

Also we are using terraform to deploy infraonly and passing this as args. args: - --set-app-log-content-access=true - --set-host-property=Compliance=None - --set-host-property=Environment=${oneagent\_deploy\_env} - --set-host-property=NodeType=Worker - --set-host-property=Owner=${oneagent\_owner} ---

Hi, Scroll down in the host view, I think they are added as metadata in the bottom. And you can create auto tagging rules also, if you want those as tags. Best regards ---

Thanks [@AntonPineiro](https://community.dynatrace.com/user/58682) for your inputs. I checked, but no metadata is showing for Infra-only. I can see it for Full stack, but not for Infra-only. ---

Hi, Maybe is about terraform way or syntax. You can ingest host properties or host tags using oneagentctl, no matter is fullstack or inframode. Best regards ---

tried that as well, still no luck. Form host it is showing but in DT it is not showing ![Gyanendra1_0-1767885944292.png](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/dynatrace/original/3X/e/7/e75ab79e4ccbacaea5e7a201b166d6591e8022cb.png) ---

Hi, As I read Kubernetes… Which mode has OneAgent? Infra mode or PaaS mode? Can you share host properties in the Dynatrace UI? Best regards ---

Hi, If you have 2 hosts, with same OneAgent version, with same OneAgent mode and one is working and another not, I would open a support ticket. Best regards ---

From your screenshots it seems that both (840, 844) agents are in full-stack mode. ---

ya even i am checking why it is showing sa full-stack in dt, but server 844 is configured as infraonly args: - --set-infra-only=true ---

this setting has been changed a few versions before, actual is ([OneAgent configuration via command-line interface — Dynatrace Managed Docs](https://docs.dynatrace.com/managed/shortlink/oneagentctl#infrastructure-monitoring%F0%9F%98%9E) --set-monitoring-mode=infra-only in fact, it was previously “--set-monitoring-mode=infrastructure”, setting you use was used even before 😉 ---
