ZABBIX_AGENTD(8)ZABBIX_AGENTD(8)NAMEzabbix_agentd - Zabbix agent daemon.
SYNOPSISzabbix_agentd [-hpV] [-c <config-file>] [-t <item-key>]
DESCRIPTIONzabbix_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. Abso‐
lute 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 sup‐
plied. 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, dis‐
played 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 Text. Same as s.
u Unsigned integer.
-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.
