Final answer:
To disable OneAgent on a specific host, one can temporarily suspend monitoring via the Dynatrace console. This method is preferable to uninstalling as it allows easy resumption of monitoring when desired.
Step-by-step explanation:
One way that you can disable OneAgent on a specific host is by temporarily suspending monitoring in the Dynatrace console. To do this, you can navigate to the 'Settings' section in the Dynatrace console, and look for an option to suspend monitoring for the host in question. This approach allows you to stop monitoring without permanently uninstalling the OneAgent software, meaning you can easily resume monitoring later if needed.
Other methods to control OneAgent include manually uninstalling it from the host or disabling specific monitoring modules through the Dynatrace UI. Advanced users can also use a configuration file to deactivate OneAgent, but this requires editing the files on the host system, so careful consideration of permissions and settings is required.
