DESCRIPTION
zabbix_agentd is a daemon for monitoring various server parameters.
OPTIONS
-c, --config config-file
Use the alternate config-file instead of the default one.
-f, --foreground
Run Zabbix agent in foreground.
-R, --runtime-control runtime-option
Perform administrative functions according to runtime-option.
Runtime control options
userparameter_reload
Reload user parameters from the configuration file
log_level_increase[=target]
Increase log level, affects all processes if target is not specified
log_level_decrease[=target]
Decrease log level, affects all processes if target is not specified
Log level control targets
process-type
All processes of specified type (active checks, collector, listener)
process-type,N
Process type and number (e.g., listener,3)
pid Process identifier, up to 65535. For larger values specify target as
"process-type,N"
-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 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.
