Managed system requirements
This page will soon be available only on the dedicated Dynatrace Managed Documentation site. Update your bookmarks.
This topic explains the operating system requirements for installing Dynatrace Managed. For other Dynatrace Managed requirements, see Managed hardware requirements and Managed hardware recommendations for cloud deployments.
-
You'll need a dedicated host for Dynatrace Managed installation. This host must not run other services that are CPU or memory intensive, or that open ports used by Dynatrace Managed.
-
You need a 64-bit Linux distribution (see supported Linux distributions below). Note that installation on both physical and virtualized hosts is supported, but installation in containers isn't supported.
-
Dynatrace Server requires a fixed IP assignment.
-
Ensure that you've appropriately configured your firewall settings
-
The libraries that are installed with Dynatrace Managed are locale-aware. For correct display of text and symbols, be sure to set your environment's system locale to an English language option (for example,
LANG=en_US.UTF-8).
