Dynatrace ONE Dynatrace ONE Premium

1.185

Windows installer

We deprecate the no_create installation parameter starting with OneAgent version 1.209. The parameter disabled user creation when installing OneAgent. Starting with version 1.209, when you use the no_create parameter, the OneAgent installer applies the LocalSystem parameter without any warning. The no_create setting isn't converted to LocalSystem for existing installations when running an update. For more information, see OneAgent extension user.

Deprecating installation parameters

Starting with OneAgent version 1.213, the following deprecated installation parameters will be removed.

Deprecated parameters New --set-param=<value> parameter
SERVER --set-server
TENANT --set-tenant
TENANT_TOKEN --set-tenant-token
PROXY --set-proxy
HOST_GROUP --set-host-group
APP_LOG_CONTENT_ACCESS --set-app-log-content-access
DISABLE_SYSTEM_LOGS_ACCESS --set-system-logs-access-enabled
INFRA_ONLY --set-infra-only

If you use any of these parameters for your OneAgent deployment, please be sure to replace them with the corresponding --set-param=<value> parameters.
