Updating DMI4APM Configuration File on Windows

Last update:

February 12, 2025

Only applicable for

  • DMI4APM version: 2.X.X
  • OS: Windows

Scenario:

Once the DMI4APM integration and its associated Java process is running successfully, updating configuration file (conf.yaml) does not reflect immediately. To ensure that the new configuration values are applied correctly, follow these steps.

Steps to apply configuration changes

  1. Locate the associated Java process.
    1. Confirm the PID of the Java process. You can check our apm.log to get the PID. (C:\ProgramData\Datadog\logs\apm.log)
    2. Open Task Manager and look for any running Java Processes.
  2. Terminate the associated Java process from the Task Manager. Traces will stop flowing into Datadog.
  3. Stop the Datadog Agent.
  4. Update the configuration file
    1. Navigate to the integration folder configuration in your Datadog Agent installation directory (C:\ProgramData\Datadog\conf.d\iocs_dmi4apm.d\conf.yaml). 
    2. Open conf.yaml and make the necessary modifications.
    3. Save the file.
  5. Restart the Datadog Agent.
  6. Confirm the associated Java process is running from the Task Manager.
