My server is running Centos 5.8 64 bit and I installed New Relic a short while ago to try and solve a few performance issues - as the server is not especially high spec I found it used too much system resources so I removed it using the Purge method as recommended on their site. https://newrelic.com/docs/general/how-do-i-uninstall-the-new-relic-agent#php

Even after doing this I keep getting messages from lfd warning about excess resource usage for New Relic and I dont know how to completely remove it. The warning from lfd is:

Time:         Sat Jan 26 10:31:14 2013 +0000
Account:      XXXXX
Resource:     Process Time
Exceeded:     30712 > 1800 (seconds)
Executable:   /usr/bin/newrelic-daemon
Command Line: /usr/bin/newrelic-daemon -l /var/log/newrelic/newrelic-daemon.log
PID:          1794 (Parent PID:1793)
Killed:       No

How can I get totally rid of New Relic?

Did you stop the daemon? Simply uninstalling it would still leave it running.

If you are running newrelic in CentOS, try using yum or rpm commands to remove it, instead of the purge method described in their documentation.

  1. stop the service

  2. Uninstall it using either of the following commands -

    yum remove newrelic-sysmond

    rpm -ev newrelic-sysmond
