Update Summary

Datadog Agent 7.83.1 (c26d8b7) includes billing and container image SBOM scan fixes, plus Cluster Agent leader-election shutdown improvements. It also adds DDOT process state reporting to Datadog and `datadog-installer status`.

Update Details

Bug Fixes

  • Fix a bug that caused the fast network path test to be billed to the customer.
  • Release the containerd view snapshot and lease used for a container image SBOM scan even when the scan is cancelled or times out.
  • Fix Cluster Agent graceful shutdown so it releases the Kubernetes leader-election lock before exiting, allowing another replica to take over without waiting for lease expiration.

New Features

  • The fleet installer daemon now reports DDOT (OpenTelemetry Collector) process state as part of the agent state sent to Datadog.
  • DDOT process state is now visible in datadog-installer status.

Hints

  • Core Checks changes are available in the 7.83.1 tag on integrations-core.
  • DDOT state is read from the process manager when it supervises DDOT, and from systemd or the Windows service manager otherwise.
