So the Instana configuration I manage - is different than yours (self-hosted on-prem running on Linux internally) - but the error message you posted mentions a memory issue. According to the message - your agent does not have a memory limit set and is trying to use an amount of memory larger than the entire available pool
The error message is directing you to make a change to set the MemoryMax property. There are directions from IBM on how to configure this here:

Specifically - see the section marked "Instana Agent resource usage limit" - it explains how to limit the memory usage of the host-agent.
