Prelude

Released on: 2022-03-01
Pinned to datadog-agent v7.34.0: CHANGELOG

New Features

• Add an external_metrics_provider.endpoints parameter that allows to specify a list of external metrics provider endpoints.
  If the first one fails, the DCA will query the next ones.
• Support file-based endpoint checks.
• Enable collection of PV/PVCs by default in the orchestrator check
• File-based cluster checks support Autodiscovery.

Bug Fixes

• Fix the Admission Controller/Webhooks info section of the cluster agent agent status output on Kubernetes 1.22+.
  Although the cluster agent was able to register its webhook with both the v1beta1 and the v1 version of the Administrationregistration API, the agent status command was always using the v1beta1, which has been removed in Kubernetes 1.22.
• Improve error handling of deleted HPA objects.
• Fix an issue where scrubbing custom sensitive words would not work as intended for the orchestrator check.
• Fixed a bug that could prevent the Admission Controller from starting when the External Metrics Provider is enabled.
• Fix the caculation of orchestrator cache hits.
