Using variables in zabbix_*.conf files?

[dkanbier]

I was wondering if it's possible to use environment variables in zabbix config files.

For the frontend this is easily done like this for example:

<?php
// Zabbix GUI configuration file
global $DB;

$DB['TYPE']     = 'MYSQL';
$DB['SERVER']   = getenv('MYSQL_DB_HOST');
$DB['PORT']     = getenv('MYSQL_DB_PORT');

Can the same be done for zabbix_server.conf, because those files aren't handled by PHP?
