Ruby Agent and Unique Host ID setting?

I was wondering if there is an undocumented way to give the Ruby Agent the Unique Host ID on a server that is also running a Standalone Machine Agent. I would like to see app and server metrics associated in the dashboard. I know this is possible with some of the other app agents (PHP, .Net, ...).

Hi @Alex.Bennion ,

Thank you for posting to the community.

There isn't a way to give the Ruby Agent the Unique Host ID.
However, you can give machine agent Unique Host ID to associate the app and server metrics.
