NAME
       zabbix_server - Zabbix server daemon

SYNOPSIS
       zabbix_server [-c config-file]
       zabbix_server [-c config-file] -R runtime-option
       zabbix_server [-c config-file] -T
       zabbix_server -h
       zabbix_server -V

DESCRIPTION
       zabbix_server is the core daemon of Zabbix software.

OPTIONS
       -c, --config config-file
              Use the alternate config-file instead of the default one.

       -f, --foreground
              Run Zabbix server in foreground.

       -R, --runtime-control runtime-option
              Perform administrative functions according to runtime-option.

           Runtime control options
               config_cache_reload
                   Reload configuration cache.  Ignored if cache is being cur‐
                   rently  loaded.   Default configuration file (unless -c op‐
                   tion is specified) will be used to find PID file and signal
                   will be sent to process, listed in PID file.

               snmp_cache_reload
                   Reload SNMP cache.

               housekeeper_execute
                   Execute the housekeeper.  Ignored if housekeeper  is  being
                   currently executed.

               trigger_housekeeper_execute
                   Execute   the  trigger  housekeeper  (remove  problems  for
                   deleted triggers).  Ignored if trigger housekeeper is being
                   currently executed.

               secrets_reload
                   Reload secrets from Vault.  Ignored if configuration  cache
                   or secrets are being currently loaded.

               diaginfo[=section]
                   Log  internal  diagnostic information of the specified sec‐
                   tion. Section can be historycache, preprocessing, alerting,
                   lld, valuecache, locks, and connector.  By default diagnos‐
                   tic information of all sections is logged.

               prof_enable[=target]
                   Enable profiling, affects all processes if  target  is  not
                   specified

               prof_disable[=target]
                   Disable  profiling,  affects all processes if target is not
                   specified

               ha_status
                   Display high availability cluster status.  Can be performed
                   only on active node.

               ha_remove_node
                   ha_remove_node[=name|ID] Remove high availability  node  by
                   its  name or ID listed in ha_status.  Can be performed only
                   on active node.

               ha_set_failover_delay[=delay]
                   Set high availability failover delay.   The  delay  can  be
                   specified  using  time  suffixes.  Can be performed only on
                   active node.
               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
