DataStax agent 6.5 not connecting to DSE cluster

Question

I have installed a DSE 6.0 cassandra cluster using LCM| opscenter 6.5 and node is up is running . During LCM cluster install, it installed datastax agent as well . But the agent is not connecting to DSE and opscenter is not showing any details about the node.Later I tried with tarball install of datastax agent but that too is showing same issue. Please see below agent.log and screenshots.

please note "/tmp/opsc_3882111672138551416/dense.sh: Permission denied" in your logs.

You probably don't have permissions to create anything under /tmp/

You can try fix the permissions or to reconfigure your temporary directory with -Djava.io.tmpdir in datastax-agent-env.sh: JVM_OPTS="$JVM_OPTS -Xmx128M -Djava.io.tmpdir=/other/temp/directory"
