Add Zabbix Agent as Service in HPUX

[gold_21]

Hi Everyone,

Here is a sample to but Zabbix agent in startup/shutdown Scritps for HPUX, so when ever you reboot your system, it will startup Automatically.

Here is the Steps:


1- Extract zabbix_agents_1.1.1_HP-UX11.11_PA-RISC.tar Files to /etc/zabbix ( You can download the file from Zabbix Website)
2- Copy zabbixd to /etc/rc.config.d
3- Copy zabbixd_script file to /sbin/init.d
4- rename /sbin/init.d/zabbixd_script to /sbin/init.d/zabbixd
5- Copy zabbixd to /etc/rc.config.d
6- ln -s /sbin/init.d/zabbixd /sbin/rc3.d/S900zabbixd
7- ln -s /sbin/init.d/zabbixd /sbin/rc2.d/K100zabbixd


If anyone can improve it, it will be appreciated.

This is teasted on HPUX 11.11 PA-RISC platform.

After abnormal agent termination file agentd.pid may exists:
# su oracle -c "/opt/zabbix/zabbix_agentd -c /opt/zabbix/zabbix_agentd.conf"
# File [/opt/zabbix/zabbix_agentd.pid] exists. Is this process already running ?
And agent not starting.

if .pid file exists 'start') section need checking by kill -0 `cat zabbix_agentd.pid` and rm -f zabbix_agentd.pid

        if [ -f $PIDFILE ] ; then
	    kill -0 `cat $PIDFILE` 2>/dev/null
	    if [ "$?" -ne 0 ]; then
	        rm -f $PIDFILE
	    else
	        echo "Zabbix agent already started"
	        exit 1
	    fi
	fi

	# Execute the commands to start your subsystem
	/etc/zabbix/zabbix_agentd -c /etc/zabbix/zabbix_agentd.conf

HP-UX zabbix-agentd installation?

The latest agent installer for PA-RISK does not include instructions or sample config file. zabbix_agents_1.4.4.hpux_11_11.pa_risc.tar.gz contains only the following files:

• zabbix_agent
• zabbix_agentd
• zabbix_get
• zabbix_sender

I'm not too confident that I know how to properly install and configure the agent to start as daemon at boot time. Can anyone give me a few pointers please?

Hello Gold_21,

I have executed all the steps sucessfully as you have mentioned but i am wondering is it really done. As i am not able to start/stop service using

service zabbix_agentd start/stop

Is there any way i can check whether there is any problem involved?

Thanks.
