Learn how to enable Dynatrace Live Debugging in Discovery and Infrastructure Mode environments through this 12-minute observability clinic tutorial. Discover the exact prerequisites, feature flags, OneAgent settings, IAM controls, and host-level toggles required to safely enable code module injection in Discovery Mode for teams adopting OpenTelemetry or lightweight OneAgent setups. Follow a comprehensive step-by-step demonstration showing how to enable Live Debugging on a Java Spring Boot service running in a cloud VM with OneAgent in Discovery Mode, including setting breakpoints, capturing debug snapshots, and tracing distributed requests without pausing production services. Explore the requirements and prerequisites for implementation, examine host settings configuration, and understand the critical role of code module injection in enabling debugging capabilities. Master the process of connecting source code, setting breakpoints, and capturing debug snapshots while learning how to scale these configurations through automation. Understand why this functionality is particularly valuable for OpenTelemetry users seeking deep code-level visibility with minimal agent footprint, making it ideal for SREs, developers, OpenTelemetry adopters, and Dynatrace administrators.
