Overview

This page outlines the basic features of the Datadog Agent. If you haven’t installed the Agent yet, instructions can be found in the Datadog Agent Integration page.

By default, your Agent is installed in its own sandbox at ~/.datadog-agent. You’re free to move this folder wherever you like. However, this article assumes that the Agent is installed in its default location, so be sure to modify the instructions accordingly if you decide to move them.

Commands

Datadog Agent has some commands and only the lifecycle commands (i.e. start/stop/restart/status on the Agent) should be run with sudo.
