userparamter multiple commands or setting bash variable

[registration_is_lame]

Is it possible to pass multiple commands in userparamters?


UserParameter=item,port=`netstat -plntu 2>/dev/null | grep process_name | awk '{print $4}' | awk -F":" '{print $2}'`; echo $port;

or

UserParameter=item,bash -c "port=`netstat -plntu 2>/dev/null | grep process_name | awk '{print $4}' | awk -F":" '{print $2}'`; echo $port;"
or

UserParameter=item,bash -c "port=`netstat -plntu 2>/dev/null | grep process_name | awk '{print $4}' | awk -F":" '{print $2}'` && echo $port;"


None of these echo the port number. It returns empty.

Hello,

Multiple commands are possible, as can be seen here.

Do you see any errors in the zabbix server logs? Perhaps the error is seen also in the frontend?

Figured it out. Zabbix needed sudoers access. echo "zabbix ALL=(ALL:ALL) NOPASSWD:/usr/bin/netstat" >> /etc/sudoers
