Dynatrace Restarts after one agent update

[jchrisw]

The customer is behind a few one-agent updates because they do not want to restart their servers once the update is complete. Is it ok to restart the one-agent process without restarting the entire server? So that they can take advantage of the new update.

thanks

yes, you can also restart processes/service one by one without having to restart the entire host.

Thank you for the quick reply, is there a way to know exactly what processes to restart for the one agent update?

There is 🙂 so navigate to the host page of the host in question, any process with a Info Icon or Triangle are restart candidates that will require restarts to gain any new features. 

That restart button will not restart the process on the host FYI

Thank you so much! This works.
