NewRelic not listing all processes on server monitoring

I have set up a server monitoring on New Relic and on the processes list, only nrsysmond (the deamon reporting data to NewRelic) is listed and no other processes (like apache, postgresql, etc.). After many search, I only found a turnaround for Cloud Linux but I'm on a dedicated server, running Debian 7, so it does not work.

I tried to raise newrelic user privilege by assigning it to adm group (event root with some hope) but it does not change anything.

I also tried to add hidepid=0,gid=adm flags on the proc line on /etc/fstab but the result is also the same.

Do you have any idea on how to fix this ?

Solution

  • You can add newrelic user to "procread" group:

    usermod -a -G procread newrelic
