New Relic APM

• Node/Env/Versions - Node 10 is no longer compatible with New Relic Node.js Agents 8.0.0.0 and above

Bug Fixes

• Infra/Config/IntegrationsValidateJson - JSON validation of OHIS is now compatible with the new and old format for validation of OHIS

Changes

• Node/Config/Agent - Checks for configuration by environment variables
• Base/Config/Collect - Report secure files rejected for collection in task summary
• Base/Config/ValidateLicenseKey - Gives warning instead of failure in case its an ingest key
• Attachments - Fix issue where automatic attachments to support tickets would fail
• Task Errors Now provide guidance on where to report them

New

• Base/Log/Copy - It will check for the .NET log files path by looking into NEWRELIC\_PROFILER\_LOG\_DIRECTORY and NEW\_RELIC\_LOG environment variables.
• Browser/Agent/GetSource - This validation will now detect when the browser script is not in the head tag

Changes

• Dotnet/Env/Target - Now validates .NET agent is compatible with versions 4.8 and 5.0 for .NET framework.
• Java/JVM/VendorsVersions - It will validate open JDK 7.15 and HotSpot 7.15

New

• Diagnostics CLI will validate the Java agent configuration that has been done through Java System Properties.
• Infra/Env/NrjmxBeans - Validates that the mbeans that the user wants to query with the New Relic JMX integration are available for the integration to pull from. This task is available for Linux and Windows.
• Infra/Env/ValidateZookeeperPath - Validates that the setting for zookeeper_path (found in kafka-config.yml) is a valid path for the New Relic Kafka integration.

Bug fixes

• Java/Env/Process - This task validates that the New Relic Java agent jar has been correctly added to the -javavagent argument. However, previously, it would only validate those jars that were explicitly named newrelic.jar. We have changed that behavior to look for a jar that could include that version in the filename.
• Infra/Config/ValidateJMX - The nrdiag-output.json will include information about the Java version and non-sensitive command line arguments for JMX. This data is mainly relevant for Support troubleshooting. Additionally, this health check now can run on Windows.
• Java/JVM/Permissions - It will not validate permissions for a log path that has been commented out from the Java agent config file.
• Infra/Config/IntegrationsMatch - This validation will no longer require the presence of on-host integration (OHI) definitions files when the user has an infrastructure agent 1.8.0 or newer and the OHI config file is using the newer configuration format.

Changes

• The product will now be known as Diagnostics CLI
• Diagnostics CLI is proud to announce that is codebase is now part of New Relic's Open Source Community: https://github.com/newrelic/newrelic-diagnostics-cli

New Checks

• Base/Java/ValidateSettings - Performs type validation of the values provided in the Java agent configuration file.

Changes

• Base/Env/SELinux - This check is now included in the minion suite of tasks with the command flag -suites minion.
• Base/Config/Validate - It will now validate a config file that a customer has collected using command flag -config-file.

New Checks

• Base/Env/SELinux - Check the presence and state for SELinux
• Base/Config/ValidateLicenseKey - Validate license keys found in agent configuration files and environment variables.
• Base/Config/ValidateHSM - Validates high-security mode local agent configuration files and environment variable against account configuration.
