Notes
A new version of the Infrastructure agent has been released.
Bug fixes
- Fixed disk usage above 100% in Windows.
- Fixed previous version bug causing zero values for CPU and IO in the process samples.
Notes
A new version of the Infrastructure agent has been released.
Improvements
- Unix processes are now sampled in a non-blocking manner.
Bug fixes
- In Linux, solved a bug that prevented the agent submitting the metrics from all the storage devices when reading the data from a single device failed.
- Fixed negative CPU steal in some old versions of Linux paravirtualized kernels.
Notes
A new version of the agent that fixes some bugs has been released.
Bug fixes
- Fixed a bug that caused the agent to crash in some systems.
- Fixed an error message that displays after running new on-host integrations for the first time.
Notes
A new version of the agent has been released, which includes a security fix.
Improvements
- Disabled warning messages when caching new plugins info. The warning messages might have given the impression that there was an error or malfunction where the caching mechanism was working as intended.
Bug fixes
- Security Bulletin NR18-05: Fixed a security issue in which, under some premises, the process sampler may not strip correctly the command-line information and submit some sensitive data to the Process View.
- Fixed a problem where if the agent was disconnected for >24 hours and then would reconnect, it would not resend this data to New Relic.
- Fixed storage metrics calculations on Windows hosts.
- Fixed inventory of installed programs on Windows hosts, which were not correctly reported since v1.0.859.
Notes
New Relic Infrastructure agent builds are available for multiple platforms. See Update the Infrastructure agent for how to download and update the appropriate version of the agent for your platform.
Note also that this is a Linux and Windows release.
Improvements
- Allow disabling inventory of SELinux modules in hosts where the associated command consumes too much CPU. Set
selinux_enable_semodule
configuration option tofalse
to disable it while keeping the rest of SELinux plugin features.
Bug fixes
- Fixed a bug that avoided updating the information of a Linux process when its command name changes at runtime, or when a new process starts with a PID that already existed for a previous process.

Note also that this is a Linux and Windows release.
Improvements
- Implement Remote Entity for Inventories.
- Removed Cassandra and Crontab bundled plugin.
- Updated URLs for region-aware licenses.
Bug fixes
- Fixed a deadlock that happened during Read/Write of large plugin outputs.
Notes
New Relic Infrastructure agent builds are available for multiple platforms. See Update the Infrastructure agent for how to download and update the appropriate version of the agent for your platform.
Note also that this is a Linux and Windows release.
Improvements
- Prevent multiple instances of an integration from running at the same time.
Bug fixes
- Fixes issues with possibly corrupt JSON stored in the delta cache due to agent shutting down uncleanly.
- Security Bulletin NR18-05: Fixes issue introduced in version 1.0.822 where command lines that included arguments that themselves had paths in them would trip up the parser and not properly strip out the command.
Notes

Note also that this is a Linux and Windows release.
Improvements
- Optimized inventory data gathering performance for sysctls.
- Updated YAML parsing to be more reliable.
- Can use dots in the names in inventory prefixes in integrations.
Bug fixes
- Fixes a potential panic when trying to read network information.
Notes
New Relic Infrastructure agent builds are available for multiple platforms. See Update the Infrastructure agent for how to download and update the appropriate version of the agent for your platform.
Note also that this is a Linux and Windows release.
Improvements
- Factor built-in integration filters noisy
puppet_agent_pid
change events. - Enhanced information available when running in verbose logging mode to help find StorageSample issues with unsupported file systems.
- StorageSamples are now collected for
vxfs
filesystem on Linux. - Windows:
svchost.exe
processes will show more context info in their process names (akin to TaskMgr.exe behavior). - Windows: Initial support for optional
enabled_elevated_process_priv
(set totrue
to use) which captures more process information if the account being used to run the agent has theSeDebugPrivilege
right in its local policy.
Bug fixes
- StorageSample I/O calculations that show percentage should now display a ceiling of 100%.
- Agent will better detect when a PID is reused on Linux and Windows, and refresh any cached information about that process.
- Windows: built-in integration
lp.exe
(List Packages), has been re-written to use the latest On Host Integration SDK and protocol. The original integration was not working reliably and could litter logs with warnings.

Note also that this is a Windows release.
Bug fixes
- If you are using the
strip_command_line
option in its default (true
) setting, the command line value will properly handle paths with white space embedded in them. - A memory leak found on Windows 10 and Windows Servers 2016 has been fixed.
