There is a new relic clone for arm (Raspberry PI)?

Question

I need to monitor the performance of a raspberry PI (with raspbian), I tried to use new relic, but it doesn't support ARM architecture, so it's impossible to use.

I even tried graphdat but seems to have the same problem.

Any alternative to suggest me?

Linode Longview does support arm architecture:

The free tier have 12-hour retention but that may be enough for most cases.

I know this is old, but New Relic has ARM and ARM64 infrastructure agents now: https://download.newrelic.com/infrastructure_agent/binaries/linux/arm/

I've tested this on a Raspberry Pi 4 (8GB) on Debian (32-bit) and it's been working fine so far.

In case anyone else tries, here's what I did:

Download the Infrastructure Agent:

sudo curl https://download.newrelic.com/infrastructure_agent/binaries/linux/arm/newrelic-infra_linux_1.20.5_arm.tar.gz --output newrelic-infra_linux_1.20.5_arm.tar.gz

Extract the files

sudo tar -xf newrelic-infra_linux_1.20.5_arm.tar.gz 

Add license key to the config script:

echo "license_key=\"<YOUR_LICENSE_KEY>\"" | sudo tee -a ~/newrelic-infra/config_defaults.sh

Install the Infrastructure Agent

sudo ~/newrelic-infra/installer.sh

Check service status to make sure it's running:

sudo systemctl status newrelic-infra

---

By default, process information is not sent to New Relic, so I had to enable it manually:

echo "enable_process_metrics: true" | sudo tee -a /etc/newrelic-infra.yml

Finally, restart the service:

sudo systemctl restart newrelic-infra
