Adding multiple Zabbix servers in agentd.conf

[wmo]

Hi all,

i got a question regarding multiple zabbix servers being put in a conf file.

What is the proper way to do this?

With the old version (1.1.4) i just had it like this:

Server=192.168.11.x
Hostname=blabla
Timeout=25

Server=192.168.9.x
Hostname=blabla
Timeout=25

This worked fine with version 1.1.4 but it seems that it doesn't anymore.

Can anyone tell me the proper/good way to do this?

Hi,

AFAIR, there is a part in the docs which says:

Put all servers in one line, separated by comma, no spaces

I think, I even tested this once.

HTH,

I've tried that but it doesn't seem to work.

I've got this in my conf file:

Server=192.168.11.5,192.168.9.5

Zabbix server 11.5 gets all the info while 9.5 doesn't get anything.

Anyone got some idea's on how to solve this?

Hi,

this is mentioned in the zabbix_agentd.conf (for Windows):

# List of comma delimited IP addresses (or hostnames) of ZABBIX servers. 
# No spaces allowed. First entry is used for sending active checks.
# Note that hostnames must resolve hostname->IP address and
# IP address->hostname.

Is that what you observe ?

Regards,

Norbert.

Thx for the replies NOB.

Figured out what the problem was. A bit stupid, but it's working now.

The second zabbix server itself was not running. After turning on the zabbix server service it now runs smooth.
