Summary:
Zabbix Agent Configuration
- After downloading the.pkg from the website, the Mac is complaining: 'Zabbixagent-5.0.2-macos-amd64-openssl.pkg' can't be opened because Apple cannot check if.
- Trusted Windows (PC) download Zabbix Agent 4.0. Virus-free and 100% clean download. Get Zabbix Agent alternative downloads.
- Zabbixagentd installer for Mac OS X. These are the source files for packaging a binary zabbixagentd. The installer itself can be downloaded at the releases: Requirements. X64 processor; Mac OS X version = 10.6, 10.7, 10.8, 10.9; Configuration.
Zabbix Agent For Macos
v0.7.7. This is a small emulator of Zabbix agent for AS/400 platform. Main purpose: to access AS/400-specific objects (message queues, output queues, subsystems and jobs). It's written on Java using the IBM Toolbox for Java API and library, implemented as Jar-file ready to start (see details below).
Limitations:
- lack of IPv6 (IPv4 only supported);
- no encryption (sorry, no plans);
- only limited subset of standard metrics supported, and even in this case: some of them have a bit different semantics of parameters;
- some config file's parameters are recognized, but really ignored (PidFile, EnableRemoteCommand, Alias, AllowRoot, Include, UserParameter and LoadModule);
- configuration parameter ListenIP allows to set only one IP-address (contrary to list in original Zabbix-agent);
- minimum value for the StartAgents parameter is 1 (i.e. active-only mode is not supported);
- during message queue monitoring the integer part only of the message's EventID is transferred to Zabbix-server. It is restriction of Zabbix database schema (it has the integer type for the appropriate attribute). However, it's possible to use a regular expression in the item's key to filter by the full text value of EventID.
Requirements:
We are evaluating Zabbix and as well as our servers, we want it to monitor our Mac OSx workstations, however the agent for Mac OSx doesn't seem to work if FileVault is enabled on the Mac. We think this maybe because each user has to enter their password for their login to work once FileVault is enabled, but we don't know what the password is.
As this is a Java-program, you need a JRE to use it :-) This Jar-file has been compiled using JDK 1.8, but for running under JRE 1.7. So, you need minimum Java version 1.7. I tested it for monitoring our AS/400 system v 7.1; but it should, probably, work on other versions also.
I tried to have minimum dependencies, but some still exist. You need 2 libraries: IBM Toolbox for Java (jt400.jar) and Simple JSON parser (json-simple-1.1.1.jar). The first library is included in the AS/400 operating system, or you can download an open-source version (JTOpen) from the sourceforge site (link, you need only jt400.jar file from the archive). The second library is a tiny (<25KB) file for parsing JSON text, you can download it here (link, you need the json-simple-1.1.1.jar file only).
Really, you need the following files and directories:
Really, you need the following files and directories:
- jt400.jar;
- json-simple-1.1.1.jar;
- ZabbixAgent.jar (in fact, Zabbix-agent emulator, this project);
- config file for the agent (default is 'zabbix_agentd.conf' in current directory). Example is included, check and modify it for your environment;
- directory where the log file could be written (the only place where the write access is required).
