When trying to upgrade the Legacy Metrics I keep getting the error:
curl: (6) Could not resolve host: bash
I’ve already tried suggestions found here: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/questions/curl-6-could-not-resolve-host-bash-upgrade-from-the-legacy-metrics-agent-to-the-current-agent
Still no success.

Hello,
I assume you’re following this article: https://www.digitalocean.com/docs/monitoring/how-to/upgrade-legacy-agent/
You can also make sure that you haven’t copied some additional characters in the curl command itself:
curl -sSL https://repos.insights.digitalocean.com/install.sh | sudo bash
Also another thing to add, can you try pinging the source site/domain as well, just to see if it’s not a networking issue:
ping repos.insights.digitalocean.com
Looking forward to your reply. Alex
I have the same issue, when running from a droplet this fails. Outside of a droplet it is fine
