SUSE Linux 11 & Init.d files for Zabbix 1.8.3

[xaviercardoza]

Hi there,

I was wondering if it is possible to use the init.d files /etc/init.d/zabbix_server & /etc/init.d/zabbix_agentd that have been written in the book

Zabbix 1.8 Network Monitoring by Rihards Olups

for the installation of Zabbix-1.8.3 running on SUSE Linux 11 ?

I am a beginner at linux and Zabbix so I was not sure if it would work. Assuming it does not the installation of Zabbix only comes with SUSE init.d files up to 9.3 of SUSE.

Any help? Any suggestions.

thanks
Lazarus.

Actually, this is not so hard. You can use the 9.3 scripts.

Be sure that the following contents reflect your installation:

ZABBIX_BIN=

and

ZABBIX_PID=

Both are depending on how you built your sources, and how you configured the path for your .pid file.

Be sure to chmod +x /etc/init.d/zabbix_agentd and run: chkconfig --level 2345 zabbix_agentd on to automagically start the agent and boot.

I guess you can figure out yourself for the server script...
