Zabbix agent user parameters Item with quoted parameters.

[Yauheni_Sk]

Hello Everyone ,

I'm trying to set up new item for custom monitoring .
My item is calling local bash script .
Main problem is that I have to forward in macros some unique names quoted with "".
All work fine till moment I forwarding list more then 1 name I'm getting "Invalid item key format."

agent conf
UserParameter=newitem[*],/bin/bash /opt/monthly_report "$1" "$2" "$3" "$4" "$5"

Item :
newitem["$Param1","$Param2","$Param3","$Param4","$Para m5"]

For example I'm my macros for $4 I'm string like "Some name 1" "Some name 2"
I'm getting error [Invalid item key format.]
At the same time if string contain only 1 phrase - all is working .

Could you kindly advise how it would be better to solve this problem .

I can't try now, but...
1) Maybe you need to enable UnsafeParameters on the agent
2) Can you pass the values using zabbix_get ?
3) Have you tried single quotes on the item key?
4) Have you tried to escape quotes on the item key (Like ") ?

Hi . currently I've resolved this issue using bash (inside script).
1) Not sure about this option
2) I've made debug through get
3) single quotes work bad with array of params - as final solution i sent string with out any quotes and changing internally with bash so it has look like
"Some name 1,Some name 2" - i'm sure this is specialty of bash interpreter.
