+## New Relic Server Monitoring Agent Example
+
+This example shows how to run a New Relic server monitoring agent as a pod in a DaemonSet on an existing Kubernetes cluster.
+
+This example will create a DaemonSet which places the New Relic monitoring agent on every node in the cluster. It's also fairly trivial to exclude specific Kubernetes nodes from the DaemonSet to just monitor specific servers.
+
+### Step 0: Prerequisites
+
+This process will create priviliged containers which have full access to the host system for logging. Beware of the security implications of this.
+
+If you are using a Salt based KUBERNETES\_PROVIDER (**gce**, **vagrant**, **aws**), you should make sure the creation of privileged containers via the API is enabled. Check `cluster/saltbase/pillar/privilege.sls`.
+
+DaemonSets must be enabled on your cluster. Instructions for enabling DaemonSet can be found [here](../../docs/api.md#enabling-the-extensions-group).
+
+### Step 1: Configure New Relic Agent
+
+The New Relic agent is configured via environment variables. We will configure these environment variables in a sourced bash script, encode the environment file data, and store it in a secret which will be loaded at container runtime.
+
+The [New Relic Linux Server configuration page]
+(https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/servers/new-relic-servers-linux/installation-configuration/configuring-servers-linux) lists all the other settings for nrsysmond.
+
+To create an environment variable for a setting, prepend NRSYSMOND_ to its name. For example,
+
+```console
+loglevel=debug
+```
+
+translates to
+
+```console
+NRSYSMOND_loglevel=debug
+```
+
+Edit examples/newrelic/nrconfig.env and set up the environment variables for your NewRelic agent. Be sure to edit the license key field and fill in your own New Relic license key.
+
+Now, let's vendor the config into a secret.
+
+```console
+$ cd examples/newrelic/
+$ ./config-to-secret.sh
+```
+
+<!-- BEGIN MUNGE: EXAMPLE newrelic-config-template.yaml -->
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: v1
+kind: Secret
+metadata:
+  name: newrelic-config
+type: Opaque
+data:
+  config: {{config_data}}
+```
+
+[Download example](newrelic-config-template.yaml?raw=true)
+<!-- END MUNGE: EXAMPLE newrelic-config-template.yaml -->
+
+The script will encode the config file and write it to `newrelic-config.yaml`.
+
+Finally, submit the config to the cluster:
+
+```console
+$ kubectl create -f examples/newrelic/newrelic-config.yaml
+```
+
+### Step 2: Create the DaemonSet definition.
+
+The DaemonSet definition instructs Kubernetes to place a newrelic sysmond agent on each Kubernetes node.
+
+<!-- BEGIN MUNGE: EXAMPLE newrelic-daemonset.yaml -->

+        - name: log

+```

+<!-- END MUNGE: EXAMPLE newrelic-daemonset.yaml -->
+
+The daemonset instructs Kubernetes to spawn pods on each node, mapping /dev/, /run/, /sys/, and /var/log to the container. It also maps the secrets we set up earlier to /etc/kube-newrelic/config, and sources them in the startup script, configuring the agent properly.
+
+### Known issues
+
+It's a bit cludgy to define the environment variables like we do here in these config files. There is [another issue](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/4710) to discuss adding mapping secrets to environment variables in Kubernetes.
