Agent Configuration Management

To use agent configurations, you must be running an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure instance with the supported operating system (see Agent Management Overview). Agent configurations give you a central experience to easily configure what custom logs you want to ingest across your fleet of hosts. A configuration allows you to select:

• Which hosts you want to collect logs from.
• Exactly which logs you want to ingest from those hosts.
• A log group/log destination.

You can manage agent configurations using the Console and Logging API. In addition, since you can choose to create an agent configuration later after creating a custom log, you can use the Agent Configurations page to set up the agent configuration and point it to your custom log.
