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
7.83.1tag on integrations-core. - DDOT state is read from the process manager when it supervises DDOT, and from systemd or the Windows service manager otherwise.
