An agent that collects traces from various sources, normalizes and pre-processes them before sending the info to the Datadog backend.
The Trace Agent is packaged with the standard Datadog Agent. Just run the Datadog Agent.
Note: the Trace Agent is not yet included in the installation from source of the Trace Agent. Follow the instructions in Development to do it manually.
The APM agent (aka Trace Agent) isn't part of the OSX Datadog Agent yet, it needs to be run manually on the side.
Have the OSX Datadog Agent.
Download the latest OSX Trace Agent release.
Run the Trace Agent using the Datadog Agent configuration.
./trace-agent-osx-X.Y.Z -config /opt/datadog-agent/etc/datadog.conf
The Trace Agent should now be running in foreground, with an initial output similar to:
-04-24 13:46:35 INFO (main.go:166) - using configuration from /opt/datadog-agent/etc/datadog.conf
-04-24 13:46:36 INFO (agent.go:200) - Failed to parse hostname from dd-agent config
-04-24 13:46:36 DEBUG (agent.go:288) - No aggregator configuration, using defaults
-04-24 13:46:36 INFO (main.go:220) - trace-agent running on host My-MacBook-Pro.local
-04-24 13:46:36 INFO (receiver.go:137) - listening for traces at http://localhost:8126
On Windows, the trace agent is shipped together with the Datadog Agent only since version 5.19.0, so users must update to 5.19.0 or above. However the Windows trace agent is in beta and some manual steps are required.
Update your config file to include:
n]
enabled: yes
ce.config]
file = C:\ProgramData\Datadog\logs\trace-agent.log
Restart the datadogagent service:
stop datadogagent
start datadogagent
For this beta the trace agent status and logs are not displayed in the Agent Manager GUI.
To see the trace agent status either use the Service tab of the Task Manager or run:
xe query datadog-trace-agent
And check that the status is “running”.
Note: the Trace Agent is not yet included in the installation from source of the Trace Agent. Follow the instructions in Development to do it manually.
First, make sure Go 1.9+ is installed. You can do this by following the steps on the official website.
Then, download (or update) the latest source by running:
et -u github.com/DataDog/datadog-trace-agent/...
Navigate to the download location and install the trace-agent binary in $GOPATH/bin:
GOPATH/src/github.com/DataDog/datadog-trace-agent
install
You may now run the agent using trace-agent --config /etc/dd-agent/datadog.conf, considering
that $GOPATH/bin has been added to your $PATH.
