NAME¶
zabbix_agentd - Zabbix agent daemon.
SYNOPSIS¶
zabbix_agentd [-hpV] [-c <config-file>] [-t
<item-key> ]
DESCRIPTION¶
zabbix_agentd is a daemon for monitoring of various server parameters.
Options¶
- -c, --config <config-file>
- Use the alternate config-file instead of the default
one. Absolute path should be specified.
- -p, --print
- Print known items and exit. For each item either generic
defaults are used, or specific defaults for testing are supplied. These
defaults are listed in square brackets as item key parameters. Returned
values are enclosed in square brackets and prefixed with the type of the
returned value, separated by a pipe character. For user parameters type is
always t, as the agent can not determine all possible return
values. Items, displayed as working, are not guaranteed to work from the
Zabbix server or zabbix_get when querying a running agent daemon as
permissions or environment may be different. Returned value types
are:
- d
- Number with a decimal part.
- m
- Not supported. This could be caused by querying an item
that only works in the active mode like a log monitoring item or an item
that requires multiple collected values. Permission issues or incorrect
user parameters could also result in the not supported state.
- s
- Text. Maximum length not limited.
- -t, --test <item-key>
- Test single item and exit. See --print for output
description.
- -h, --help
- Display this help and exit.
- -V, --version
- Output version information and exit.
FILES¶
- /etc/zabbix/zabbix_agentd.conf
- Default location of Zabbix agent configuration file (if not
modified during compile time).
