Install the New Relic Java Agent for AIQ Monitoring

Last reviewed: September 21, 2026

Use this page when a Java application under test must be instrumented with the New Relic Java agent so AIQ performance results can be correlated with APM data.

  • Use the current New Relic Java agent documentation for the supported agent version.
  • Coordinate installation with the application owner before changing JVM startup options.
  • Keep license keys and account credentials out of AIQ docs and screenshots.

Validation workflow

  1. Confirm the application server, Java version, and target New Relic account.
  2. Download the current Java agent from New Relic using an approved account.
  3. Install the agent on the application server and add the recommended javaagent JVM option.
  4. Set the application display name and environment tags consistently.
  5. Restart the application in a maintenance window, run a short AIQ test, and confirm New Relic receives data for the same time window.

Note: The previous article contained older Tomcat/New Relic version-specific screenshots. Treat those as obsolete and follow current New Relic guidance.
