system.cpu.util NOT SUPPORTED

[JFontes]

Hi Guys,

Can anyone help me?
I trying get the utilization of my CPU, but the zabbix show me NOT SUPPORTED.
I use Ubuntu 12.04 and Zabbix 2.0.1

operacao@zabbix-server:~$ zabbix_agentd -t system.cpu.util[,,avg1]
system.cpu.util[,,avg1] [m|ZBX_NOTSUPPORTED]
operacao@zabbix-server:~$ zabbix_agentd -t system.cpu.util[,,]
system.cpu.util[,,] [m|ZBX_NOTSUPPORTED]
operacao@zabbix-server:~$ zabbix_agentd -t system.cpu.util[,0,avg1]
system.cpu.util[,0,avg1] [m|ZBX_NOTSUPPORTED]

Thank you!

This could be a few things. Are the other checks supported? Is your server receiving data from Zabbix?

If it's not a communication problem, it may be a permission problem with zabbix itself (for example, you compiled or installed without sudo).

Sometimes when I get really desperate, I give the user Zabbix a shell (sudo usermod Zabbix -s /bin/bash) and I change to the Zabbix user, then I try and physically do whatever I'm monitoring (like check a log, run a command, etc). That helps greatly if there is a permission problem somewhere along the line. Just make sure to change it back for security purposes
