For DEB or RPM packages of the Datadog Agent, find the instructions below to downgrade the Datadog Agent to a prior minor version.

To downgrade the Datadog Agent to a prior major version, follow the instructions on the dedicated page.

Notes:

These instructions only work for Datadog Agent version 6.x and above.
The instructions below for configuration management tools only work with the latest major version of these tools: v4.x for the Chef cookbook, v3.x for the Puppet module, and v4.x for the Ansible role. If you are using a prior version, see the documentation for that version on the tools’ repositories: Chef cookbook v3.x, Puppet module v2.x, or Ansible role v3.x.

Debian/Ubuntu

CLI

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install --allow-downgrades datadog-agent=1:X.Y.Z-1

Note: If the option --allow-downgrades doesn’t exist for your apt version, you can use --force-yes instead.

Configuration management tools

node["datadog"]["agent_version"] = "1:X.Y.Z-1"
node["datadog"]["agent_package_action"] = "install"
node["datadog"]["agent_allow_downgrade"] = true

class { 'datadog_agent':
      ...
      agent_version => "1:X.Y.Z-1",
}

Add the following attributes in your playbook:

datadog_agent_version: "1:X.Y.Z-1"
datadog_agent_allow_downgrade: yes

RHEL/CentOS/Amazon Linux

CLI

sudo yum clean expire-cache metadata && sudo yum downgrade datadog-agent-X.Y.Z-1

Configuration management tools

node["datadog"]["agent_version"] = "X.Y.Z-1"

node["datadog"]["agent_allow_downgrade"] = true

class { 'datadog_agent':
      ...
      agent_version => "X.Y.Z-1",
}
