New Features

🚀 [ContainerInsights] Add Instance Store NVME metrics translation for EKS environments
Added support for instance store NVME metrics collection in Container Insights for EKS clusters by leveraging the awscontainerinsightsreceiver from the OpenTelemetry contrib package. The agent now automatically scrapes and translates NVME device metrics with proper naming conventions and dimension sets, exported in EMF log format. This provides visibility into local ephemeral storage performance for instance types with NVMe instance stores (I3, I4i, C5d, M5d series), enabling customers to monitor disk I/O, throughput, and utilization for workloads using high-performance local storage.

🚀 [ContainerInsights] Add EFA Metrics to Container Insights for EKS environments
Introduced Elastic Fabric Adapter (EFA) metrics collection for Container Insights on EKS clusters. The agent now collects five critical EFA metrics from the Linux sysfs interface: unresponsive_remote_events, impaired_remote_conn_events, retrans_timeout_events, retrans_pkts, and retrans_bytes. Metrics are aggregated at node, pod, and container levels, enabling customers to detect connectivity issues, identify packet retransmission patterns, and monitor network performance for HPC, ML training, and distributed workloads requiring high-performance inter-node communications.

Bug Fixes

🐞 [Agent/SSM] Fix ManageAgent SSM document compatibility across all supported operating systems
Resolved a critical issue with the ManageAgent SSM document that caused failures on Debian and Ubuntu systems. The v1.300062.0 security fix used bash-specific conditional syntax ([[ ]]) that is incompatible with dash, the default shell (/bin/sh) on Debian-based distributions. The document has been updated to use POSIX-compliant syntax that works across all supported operating systems and their default shells, maintaining the security improvements while ensuring compatibility with Amazon Linux, Debian, Ubuntu, and other supported distributions.
