Running 2 agentd.exe, possible ??

[BusteR81]

hi

currently using agentd v1.1 on my system but i wish to evaluate agentd v1.3.8 on the same system. so i was wondering if it is possible to monitor a system with 2 agentd running. of coz i have 2 seperate zabbix servers (v1.1 and v1.3.8)

if possible, what changes do i make to agentd.conf ? add 2nd listening port other than 10500 or/and new server host IP = x . x . x . x

thanks

I have set up 2 different agents on linux machines but the same should apply to Windows.

Rename the second zabbix_agentd.conf to something like zabbix_agentd1.conf and start the agent specifying that .conf file.

Make sure you specify a different listening port, I use 10060, and of course the new hostname.

On linux systems make sure you also rename the pid and logfile name. The pid doesn't matter on Windows but rename the logfile.
