    Do we need to run zabbix_agentd on a Zabbix Server

    Hi All,

    This might sound very elementary but I needed clarification from the folks experienced using Zabbix.
    I am running Zabbix Server on two nodes (Machines/VMs)
    I've 15 other machines which have the Zabbix Agent installed and running.

    The 15 agents have the following in their zabbix_agentd.conf

    Server=DNSName-Of-Server1,DNSName-Of-Server2
    ServerActive=DNSName-Of-Server1,DNSName-Of-Server2

    On the Server1/Server2
    should I be running zabbix agents ALSO to collect metrics from the 15 agents ?

    As at the moment I'm not running zabbix agents on the servers and I am NOT able to get even the BASIC system.uptime metric to the server.

    Please advice.
Working...
