For Docker container monitoring in Dynatrace, what is the first action required?

The first action required for Docker container monitoring in Dynatrace is to obtain the OneAgent installer URL. This step is crucial because the OneAgent is the component that collects performance data from your Docker containers and the environment they run in. By obtaining the installer URL, you ensure that you have access to the latest version of the OneAgent specifically designed for Docker.

Once you have the installer URL, you can proceed with deploying the OneAgent in your Docker environment, which includes executing the necessary commands to run it as a container. This foundational step sets up the monitoring framework that will enable you to gather comprehensive metrics and insights from your running containers.

While running a OneAgent as a Docker container, configuring Docker settings, and setting up a network bridge are important actions in the monitoring process, they follow after securing the installer URL. Without this initial step, you cannot deploy the OneAgent effectively, which is essential for monitoring your environment.
