suggestion: include() facility for conf file

[sgbeal]

Hi, Zabbixers (Zabbixites? Zabbixians?)

i have just been tasked with rolling out zabbix on about 50 Solaris machines (a mix of Sparc and x86), on which we will use a handful of custom UserParameter entries. It would be really helpful here if the agent config file had an include-like facility, such that we could do:

include /etc/zabbix/my.conf

(the exact syntax is not important, just the end effect.)

Alternately, have the zabbix agent automatically include all config files from a certain directory (e.g. INSTALL_PREFIX/etc/zabbix/conf.d/.), in the same manner that the Debian "apt" tools automatically import all config files from /etc/apt/sources.list.d/.

:-?

that is actually already supported - both individual files and directories.

Include=/etc/zabbix/zabbix_agent.userparams.conf
Include=/etc/zabbix/zabbix_agentd/

same for server and proxy.

doh, great . That makes my roll-out easier .
