    system.run in AIX5.3

    Does anyone know if the 1.4.1 version of the AIX (v5.3) agent supports system.run commands?

    I had a lot of system.run commands to capture metrics in the previous version of Zabbix (v1.1). After I upgraded to the newer version of the agent, the system.run commands went to a status of unsupported.

    If 1.4 does not support system.run commands, does anyone know of a substitute?

    Thanks,
    Sid

    To see the supported items for your system you can:
    1) check documentation
    2) run zabbix_agent or zabbix_agentd with -p ot -t "<some key>" parameters. see internal help of agents zabbix_agentd -h

      I looked at the documentation.

      I am trying to get CPU information for an AIX host but that his not supported using the regular Zabbix internals (based on what the documentation says).

      So, I have to use system.run commands to run things like sar -u to be able to capture those metrics. However, with the new 1.4 agent, all items go to 'not supported' state. The old 1.1 agent didn't work as well either.

      Also note, the server is at version 1.1.

      How does everyone else capture metrics on AIX hosts?

      Thanks,
      Sid
