Agent for HP-UX 11.31

[sintona]

I am a new person here.
Can anyone help me with the agent for HP Unix (HP-UX) 11.31 version? i am using Zabbix 3.0.

Precompiled agents for HP-UX can be found at http://www.zabbix.com/download.php.
Or you can compile it from source on HP-UX as described on https://www.zabbix.com/documentation...lation/install

if you dont mind, can you please give installation step? normally we install .depot files in hp unix, how to install this tar file?

From my memory - there may be errors or omissions, it is not the only possible or the best way.

From http://www.zabbix.com/download.php download a precompiled agent for HP-UX.

1. Decide under which user you will run Zabbix agent.
As running as 'root' is bad for security, let's run it under user 'zabbix'.
Create account for user 'zabbix', set appropriate group membership.

2. Decide in which directory you want to install it.
For example, in /opt/zabbix_3.0.0.

Create directory, set permissions, e.g.
# mkdir /opt/zabbix_3.0.0
# chown zabbix:zabbix /opt/zabbix_3.0.0
# chmod u=rwx,go= /opt/zabbix_3.0.0

3. Unpack tar file, e.g.
# su - zabbix
$ cd /opt/zabbix_3.0.0
$ gunzip -c /path_to_archive/zabbix_agents_2.4.4.hpux11_31.ia64.tar.gz | tar xf -

Now you have
$ ls -lR
.:

drwxr-xr-x 3 zabbix zabbix 4096 apr 20 10:49 conf

./sbin:

-rwxr-xr-x 1 zabbix zabbix 897452 mar 12 2015 zabbix_agent
-rwxr-xr-x 1 zabbix zabbix 1035836 mar 12 2015 zabbix_agentd <---- Zabbix agent executable.

4. Edit agent configuration file /opt/zabbix_3.0.0/conf/zabbix_agentd.conf to suit your needs.
In particular, pay attention to PidFile, LogFile, Server, ListenPort, ServerActive, Hostname parameters.

5. Start agent, e.g.
$ /opt/zabbix_3.0.0/sbin/zabbix_agentd -c /opt/zabbix_3.0.0/conf/zabbix_agentd.conf

Now you get the idea, you can make your own .depot package.

no more pre-compiled HP-UX 11.31 ia64 agents (only for deprecated PA-RISC CPU) on http://www.zabbix.com/download

very sad

[andris]

The problem is - no access to HP-UX 11.31 ia64 machine for compiling Zabbix agent.

I can give HPUX Server for testing. we can have remote session for this.
