Hi,
doing automatic restarts for OOM errors is a two-edged sword. It will improve reliability when the OOM happens in very rare cases caused by abnormal system state.
On the other hand, the automatic restart will cover bugs in the agent (code, configuration, sensors) which will not be noticed as such.
I urge you to open a support ticket on any OOM occasion you encounter with the agent. This gives us the ability to improve agent & sensor quality and other customers will also benefit.
Don't get me wring, this is not meant to be quality control on your side! We do test the agent and our sensors on a lot of different environments and system combinations. Although it will never mirror all of our customers setups, which may introduce those issues.
Best regards
Henning Treu - Product Manager Agent & Application Perspectives
