Atualizar para a versão mais recente

Para identificar qual versão do agente Java você está usando atualmente, execute java -jar newrelic.jar -v. A versão do seu agente Java será impressa em seu console.

Em seguida, para atualizar para a versão mais recente do agente Java:

1. Faça backup de todo o diretório raiz do agente Java em outro local. Renomeie esse diretório para NewRelic_Agent#.#.#, onde #.#.# é o número da versão do agente.
2. Baixe o agente..
3. Descompacte o novo arquivo de download do agente e copie newrelic-api.jar e newrelic.jar no diretório raiz original do agente Java.
4. Compare seu newrelic.yml antigo com o newrelic.yml recém-baixado do zip e atualize o arquivo, se necessário.
5. Reinicie seu despachante Java.

Se você tiver problemas após a atualização do agente Java, restaure a partir do diretório do agente New Relic do qual foi feito backup.

Atualizar diferenças de configuração do agente

Adicionamos novas configurações a newrelic.yml à medida que lançamos novas versões do agente. Você pode usar diff ou outro utilitário de comparação para ver o que mudou e adicionar as novas configurações ao seu arquivo antigo. Certifique-se de não substituir nenhuma personalização feita no arquivo, como chave de licença, nome do aplicativo ou alterações nas configurações padrão.

Por exemplo, se você diff os arquivos newrelic.yml padrão para as versões 7.10.0 e 7.11.0 do agente Java, os resultados impressos no console serão como:

➜ diff newrelic_7.10.0.yml newrelic_7.11.0.yml
...
107a108,119
>       # Whether the log events should include context from loggers with support for that.
>       include_context_data:
>
>         # When true, application logs will contain context data.
>         enabled: false
>
>         # A comma separated list of attribute keys whose values should be sent to New Relic.
>         #include:
>
>         # A comma separated list of attribute keys whose values should not be sent to New Relic.
>         #exclude:
>
125a138
>
128c141
<     enabled: false
---
>     enabled: true
...

Neste exemplo, essas linhas foram adicionadas ao newrelic.yml padrão no agente Java versão 7.11.0. Se você estiver migrando para 7.11.0 ou superior, adicione essas novas linhas ao seu newrelic.yml original.

Declaração de apoio:

• New Relic recomenda que você atualize o agente regularmente para garantir que esteja obtendo os benefícios mais recentes de recursos e desempenho. Além disso, versões mais antigas não terão mais suporte quando chegarem ao fim de sua vida útil.

New features and improvements

• Enhances visibility into Reactor Mono.flatMap calls 2308
• Adds new instrumentation for Spring-Kafka and distributed tracing when using the core Kafka client library 2312
• Adds KafkaConsumerConfig event support for Kafka 3.7+ 2358

Fixes

• Fixes the distributed_tracing.sampler config 2330
• Fixes an Illegal Access Error that can occur when using Scala 2.12 and JDK 11. In cases where Scala 2.12 is not detectable by the agent (we check the system classloader for this - notably, sbt will load Scala classes into custom Scala loaders), there is also a feature flag to manually enable the fix via system property -Dnewrelic.config.class_transformer.illegal_access_fix=true 2334
• Fixes a logic error with the netty.http2.frame_read_listener.start_transaction configuration for the netty-4.1.16 instrumentation module. This error caused ‘unknown’ transactions to pop again in certain applications. 2355
• Adds a restriction on when to add distributed trace headers for SQS messages. This is based on how large the contents of a message is in bytes and the and the size of attributes. Messages with size greater than 251 KB and/or with 9 or more attributes are excluded from getting distributed trace headers added 2353
• Allows the org.crac JAR to be shadowed to prevent conflicts with customer environments. 2344
• Backports changes made in PR #1927 to prevent NullPointerExceptions to older versions of the vertx-core instrumentation 2327
• Prevents excessive transaction segments from being created by HttpUrlConnection method calls (e.g. getInputStream) when they are not associated with an external call. This behavior can be controlled by the following config options: NEW_RELIC_CLASS_TRANSFORMER_COM_NEWRELIC_INSTRUMENTATION_HTTPURLCONNECTION_VERBOSE=false, sys prop -Dnewrelic.config.class_transformer.com.newrelic.instrumentation.httpurlconnection.verbose=false, or equivalent stanza in newrelic.yml. Default setting is true (i.e. non-external getInputStream and other response handler methods will be reported as before). 2365

Security

• Upgrades the com.newrelic.agent.java:infinite-tracing-protobuf for better security with infinite tracing 2339
• Replaces snakeyaml with com.konloch:safeyaml to address a security vulnerability 2333

Deprecations

The following instrumentation modules are deprecated and will be removed in the next major release:

• aws-wrap-0.7.0
• java.completable-future-jdk8
• play-2.3
• netty-3.4
• Struts v1

CSEC Version Update to 1.7.0 2348
Changelog: https://github.com/newrelic/csec-java-agent/releases/tag/1.7.0

Update to latest version

To identify which version of the Java agent you're currently using, run java -jar newrelic.jar -v. Your Java agent version will be printed to your console.

Then, to update to the latest Java agent version:

1. Back up the entire Java agent root directory to another location. Rename that directory to NewRelic_Agent#.#.#, where #.#.# is the agent version number.
2. Download the agent..
3. Unzip the new agent download file, then copy newrelic-api.jar and newrelic.jar into the original Java agent root directory.
4. Compare your old newrelic.yml with the newly downloaded newrelic.yml from the zip, and update the file if needed.
5. Restart your Java dispatcher.

If you experience issues after the Java agent update, restore from the backed-up New Relic agent directory.

Update agent config differences

We add new settings to newrelic.yml as we release new versions of the agent. You can use diff or another diffing utility to see what's changed, and add the new config settings to your old file. Make sure not to overwrite any customizations you've made to the file, such as your license key, app name, or changes to default settings.

For example, if you diff the default newrelic.yml files for Java agent versions 7.10.0 and 7.11.0, the results printed to the console will be like:

➜ diff newrelic_7.10.0.yml newrelic_7.11.0.yml
...
107a108,119
>       # Whether the log events should include context from loggers with support for that.
>       include_context_data:
>
>         # When true, application logs will contain context data.
>         enabled: false
>
>         # A comma separated list of attribute keys whose values should be sent to New Relic.
>         #include:
>
>         # A comma separated list of attribute keys whose values should not be sent to New Relic.
>         #exclude:
>
125a138
>
128c141
<     enabled: false
---
>     enabled: true
...

In this example, these lines were added to the default newrelic.yml in Java agent version 7.11.0. If you're moving to 7.11.0 or higher, you should add these new lines to your original newrelic.yml.

Support statement:

• New Relic recommends that you upgrade the agent regularly to ensure that you're getting the latest features and performance benefits. Additionally, older releases will no longer be supported when they reach end-of-life.

Novos recursos e melhorias

• Suporte para CRaC 2250

• Suporte para JDK24 2284

• Opções de amostragem adicionadas quando existe um traceparent de entrada 2279

  • Essas opções definem como o agente deve lidar com a amostragem de intervalos, dependendo das decisões de amostragem que foram tomadas para seu intervalo por uma entidade upstream. As opções de configuração remote_parent_sampled e remote_parent_not_sampled especificam o que fazer caso o intervalo pai tenha sido amostrado ou não amostrado, respectivamente. Consulte a documentação para obter detalhes completos da configuração.

• Suporte para Undertow como um módulo autônomo 2269

  • Esta instrumentação é desabilitada por padrão para evitar conflitos com a instrumentação Wildfly existente. Para habilitar essa instrumentação para aplicativos de servidor Undertow autônomos, use a configuração:

  class_transformer:
     com.newrelic.instrumentation.undertow-server-1.1.0:
       enabled: true

  Copiar

• Suporte para o cliente Couchbase 2203

  • Se o Módulo Experimental do Cliente Couchbase estiver em uso, remova-o do seu diretório de extensões antes de atualizar para esta versão do agente Java.

Correções

• Corrigir transações netty 'Desconhecidas' 2274

  • Esta correção move alterações anteriores da instrumentação do netty para trás de um sinalizador de recurso, o que fornece visibilidade adicional em alguns casos envolvendo transações HTTP2. Para reativar essa granularidade (ao possível custo de ver transações "Desconhecidas"), use a configuração:

  netty:
      http2:
        frame_read_listener:
          start_transaction: true

  Copiar

• Refatore a busca de ID do Docker da AWS para usar o tempo limite de 5s 2275

• sinalizador de recurso para aplicar a correção Kotlin ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException a todos os métodos 2307

  • Esta correção corrige erros que podem ser vistos ao executar o agente Java em um ambiente onde funções de suspensão do Kotlin são usadas. Para usar esta correção, defina a propriedade do sistema -Dnewrelic.config.class_transformer.clear_return_stacks=true

• Impedir bloqueio de cache para análise de instruções longas de BD 2294

• Adicionar configuração para especificar se java.sql é carregado pelo carregador de classes de plataforma 2267

Depreciações

Os seguintes módulos de instrumentação estão obsoletos e serão removidos na próxima versão principal:

• aws-wrap-0.7.0
• java.completable-future-jdk8
• play-2.3

New features and improvements

• Obfuscate JVM properties 2114
  The Java agent will now obfuscate values passed to JVM properties. For example: -Dprop=12345 will now be sent as -Dprop=obfuscated. The documentation has information on how to disable obfuscation and how to add exceptions.

• Cloud API 2081
  The Cloud API allows cloud provider account information to be provided to the agent. This will allow the agent to populate the cloud.resource_id attribute in calls to select cloud services.
  The API documentation has information on how to use it programmatically.
  This information can also be provided using a configuration option.

• Support distributed tracing for Kafka Stream 3.7.x 2095

• Report if agent was installed via Azure site extension 2094

• Lazy initialization of GUIDs on DefaultTracers 2088

• Java HttpClient: Addition of status code to reported externals 2089

In this example, these lines were added to the default newrelic.yml in Java agent version 7.11.0. If you're moving to 7.11.0 or higher, you should add these new lines to your original newrelic.yml.

Support statement:

• New Relic recommends that you upgrade the agent regularly to ensure that you're getting the latest features and performance benefits. Additionally, older releases will no longer be supported when they reach end-of-life.
