What action is required if the agent deployment starts but shows errors in logs?

The appropriate action when facing errors in the logs during agent deployment involves scrutinizing the configuration settings, especially the URL. Changing the configuration to include the right URL ensures that the agent can correctly communicate with the Dynatrace server or the necessary monitoring endpoints. Correcting the URL is crucial as it establishes the fundamental connectivity that allows the agent to send data properly.

When the deployment errors are logged, it often indicates a connectivity issue or misconfiguration that prevents the agent from functioning as intended. Updating the URL can resolve these issues by pointing the agent to the correct resources it needs to operate effectively.

Other actions, such as rechecking deployment logs or updating the Dynatrace API, while useful in some contexts, might not directly address the primary issue of connectivity resulting from incorrect configuration. Similarly, waiting for the next synchronization cycle does not resolve the underlying problem and could lead to further delays without any assurance of fixing the errors.
