ActiveGate purposes and functionality
An ActiveGate can be used for three different use cases, which we refer to as purposes:
- Route OneAgent traffic to Dynatrace, monitor cloud environments, or monitor remote technologies using extensions
- Run Synthetic monitors from a private location
- Install the zRemote module for z/OS monitoring
Each purpose comes with a different subset of functional modules. Modules should not be mixed between purposes—such re-configuration is not supported.
