Announcements

End of support for private Synthetic locations on Red Hat/Oracle Linux/Rocky Linux 8

There are no new versions of Chromium for Red Hat/Oracle Linux/Rocky Linux 8 beyond version 133. For important security and stability reasons, we've decided to discontinue our support for installing Synthetic-enabled ActiveGate on Red Hat/Oracle Linux/Rocky Linux 8 after ActiveGate version 1.325.

To ensure the continuity and security of your synthetic monitors, we recommend migrating your Synthetic-enabled ActiveGate to one of the supported operating systems, for example Red Hat/Oracle Linux/Rocky Linux 9.

We plan to have ActiveGate version 1.325 as the last Synthetic-enabled ActiveGate supported on Red Hat/Oracle Linux/Rocky Linux 8.

Additionally, with Dynatrace version 1.326, we plan to introduce mechanisms preventing Synthetic-enabled ActiveGates on Red Hat/Oracle Linux/Rocky Linux 8 from being updated beyond version 1.325.
