Disable the APM agent

There are two main ways to disable the Go agent:

• Remove the import of the github.com/newrelic/go-agent package from your application, and remove or comment out any calls to the newrelic namespace. Then, recompile and restart your app.

• Use the enabled configuration setting. Then, recompile and restart your app. (This will not reduce overhead because the instrumentation is still running; it will only prevent the sending of data to the New Relic collector.)

  After you disable the agent, it may take several minutes for data to stop showing up.

There are three main ways to disable the Java agent:

The method to disable the agent depends on if you are using Framework or Core:

• .NET Framework: Set agentEnabled to false in the global newrelic.config file, found in C:\ProgramData\New Relic\.NET Agent\. If the application is IIS-hosted, restart IIS. If it's self-hosted (non-IIS), restart the application.

• .NET Core: Set agentEnabled to false in the newrelic.config file found in the Core agent’s installation directory (for Windows alongside NewRelic.Profiler.dll and for Linux alongside NewRelic.Profiler.so). If you use the ASP.NET Core Module, reset IIS. Otherwise, restart your Core application.

There are three main ways to disable the Python agent, depending on your preference and setup:

• Standard install: Use the monitor_mode configuration setting. This can be done by editing the config file or by using an environment variable.

• Standard install with newrelic-admin script: Remove reference to that script in your application.

• Manual instrumentation: Remove the initialization script from your application.

There are several ways to disable the Ruby agent, depending on your preference and setup.

These methods will remove most instrumentation but there will still be a small amount of activity and overhead:

• Use the agent_enabled configuration setting. This can be done in the configuration file or in the per-environment sections. Restart your app server afterward.

• Do the same via an environment variable, then restart the app server.

  The following methods will remove all instrumentation and overhead:

• Remove newrelic_rpm from the Gemfile and bundle install.

• Set the following in the Gemfile and bundle install:

  gem 'newrelic_rpm', :require => false

  Copia

  This option ensures the gem is installed if it's required somewhere in the app, but doesn't install it when bundling.
