UserParameter

[cptnzod]

I got everything figured out on zabbix and need this last bit to go to production.

I have this in my zabbix_agentd.conf:
UserParameter=dhcpd.test,/usr/local/bin/check_dhcp.sh

[root@oolong init.d]# zabbix_agentd -t dhcpd.test
dhcpd.test [m|ZBX_NOTSUPPORTED]

[root@oolong init.d]# zabbix_get -s localhost -k dhcpd.test
ZBX_NOTSUPPORTED

The actual script exits with status zero:
[root@oolong init.d]# /usr/local/bin/check_dhcp.sh
[root@oolong init.d]# echo $?
0

I guess the question is how to fix this?

Just figured this one out.
The script should actually echo a result out. I was just depending on the exit status which will not work.

it's simple.
Zabbix dont care about shell return code. It just wait for a value on stdout.
So just use a "print 0" or "echo 0" inside your shell script to correct the problem.

Zabbix dont care about shell return code.

This is true for 1.1.2 (or 1.1.3) and later releases. ZABBIX did check return codes in earlier versions.
