Im trying to run this yaml file, and this is the error I see │ /bin/bash: -c: option requires an argument
what am I missing, what should be the entrypoint of the docker?
any help will be highly appreciated

Hi Tomer, this is a container that we use to build the agent in reproducible manner (e.g. see the Makefile target agent), it does not contain a profiling agent executable. Given the experimental status of the agent, we haven't yet made any formal releases / published artifacts.

Thanks, @christos68k,
Is there a way to run the agent on Kubernetes clusters and export data, such as continuous profiling data, to an OTLP collector?

[christos68k]

You'll need to build your own container and deploy it to K8s. Keep in mind that we're working on the collector integration and the protocol, so breakage is to be expected.

Closing this issue. As explained by @christos68k the docker container otel/opentelemetry-ebpf-profiler-dev is used only to build the executable but does not contain the OTel eBPF profiler.
