Updates no longer available for Synthetic-enabled ActiveGate on Ubuntu 16

We previously announced the end of support for installing Synthetic-enabled ActiveGate on Ubuntu 16 after ActiveGate version 1.251. Now, with Dynatrace version 1.254, you can no longer update Synthetic-enabled ActiveGate on Ubuntu 16; the Update button in the Deployment status tab for such ActiveGate instances is no longer available.

Assign Synthetic-enabled ActiveGate to a private location during installation

With Dynatrace version 1.254 and ActiveGate 1.253, you can optionally select and assign a private location to a Synthetic-enabled ActiveGate during the ActiveGate deployment workflow. As before, you can also assign a location after setting up your ActiveGate.
