Symbol Database is a feature of Dynamic Instrumentation in private beta.

Requirements

Installation

To run your service with Dynamic Instrumentation enabled, and additionally enable Symbol Database uploads:

  1. Set the -Ddd.symbol.database.upload.enabled flag or the DD_SYMBOL_DATABASE_UPLOAD_ENABLED environment variable to true.
  2. Set the -Ddd.symbol.database.includes flag or the DD_SYMBOL_DATABASE_INCLUDES environment variable to your package prefix (for example, com.datadoghq). The setting expects a comma-separated list, so you can add multiple prefixes.
  3. Specify the dd.service and dd.version Unified Service Tags.

Example service startup command:

java \
    -javaagent:dd-java-agent.jar \
    -Ddd.service=<YOUR_SERVICE> \
    -Ddd.env=<YOUR_ENVIRONMENT> \
    -Ddd.version=<YOUR_VERSION> \
    -Ddd.dynamic.instrumentation.enabled=true \
    -Ddd.symbol.database.upload.enabled=true \
    -Ddd.symbol.database.includes=<YOUR_PACKAGE_PREFIX> \
    -jar <YOUR_SERVICE>.jar <YOUR_SERVICE_FLAGS>
export DD_SERVICE=<YOUR_SERVICE>
export DD_ENV=<YOUR_ENV>
export DD_VERSION=<YOUR_VERSION>
export DD_DYNAMIC_INSTRUMENTATION_ENABLED=true
export DD_SYMBOL_DATABASE_UPLOAD_ENABLED=true
export DD_SYMBOL_DATABASE_INCLUDES=<YOUR_PACKAGE_PREFIX>
java \
    -javaagent:dd-java-agent.jar \
    -jar <YOUR_SERVICE>.jar <YOUR_SERVICE_FLAGS>

Note: The -javaagent argument needs to be before -jar, adding it as a JVM option rather than an application argument. For more information, see the Oracle documentation:

# Correct:
$ java -javaagent:dd-java-agent.jar ... -jar my-service.jar -more-flags

# Incorrect:
$ java -jar my-service.jar -javaagent:dd-java-agent.jar ...
  1. After starting your service with Symbol Database enabled, you can use Symbol Database’s IDE-like features on the APM > Dynamic Instrumentation page.
