Zabbix Agent 1.1.2 for AIX 5.2

[vinz]

Hello,

I've made a small package for AIX 5.2 for Zabbix Agent 1.1.2.
Extract this archive : Zabbix Agent 1.1.2 AIX 5.2 and start "install.sh".

Require : perl (tested with 5.8.0)

Installation steps :
- A zabbix user will be created.
- All things are installed in /usr/local/zabbix (bin, etc, scripts...)
- An init script in /etc/rc.d/init.d/zabbix_agentd (start/stop)
- By default, the config file enable remote commands and configure automatically the hostname and servername entries (you must change the last one ;-) ).

Ciao,

Additionnal info: this statically compiled agent has been compiled with XLC (you can grab an 30 days eval release of this IBM compiler on the IBM AIX website).

Unfortunatly, few infos are supported by the ZABBIX agent on AIX 5.2, as you can see in this report (zabbix_agentd -p):

So, you're on your own to use some system.run/UserParameters and your custom scripts to grab more infos.

Missing headers

In config.log, there are some missing header files :

ac_cv_c_compiler_gnu=no
ac_cv_func_asprintf=no
ac_cv_func_getloadavg=no
ac_cv_func_getopt_long=no
ac_cv_func_vasprintf=no
ac_cv_header_getopt_h=no
ac_cv_header_knlist_h=no
ac_cv_header_kstat_h=no
ac_cv_header_kvm_h=no
ac_cv_header_lber_h=no
ac_cv_header_ldap_h=no
ac_cv_header_linux_kernel_h=no
ac_cv_header_mach_host_info_h=no
ac_cv_header_mach_mach_host_h=no
ac_cv_header_mtent_h=no
ac_cv_header_sys_disk_h=no
ac_cv_header_sys_dk_h=no
ac_cv_header_sys_dkstat_h=no
ac_cv_header_sys_loadavg_h=no
ac_cv_header_sys_mount_h=no
ac_cv_header_sys_pstat_h=no
ac_cv_header_sys_swap_h=no
ac_cv_header_sys_syscall_h=no
ac_cv_header_sys_sysctl_h=no
ac_cv_header_sys_vmmeter_h=no

ac_cv_lib_kstat_main=no
ac_cv_lib_kvm_main=no
ac_cv_lib_resolv_main=no
ac_cv_lib_socket_main=no

I think it's for that we don't have many things to monitor...
I'll test to recompile it with all headers files.

And for the server ?

Hello,

I'm desperate : I never managed to compile Zabbix server on
my AIX 5.2 servers ? Did you succeed in ?

Thank you

Maybe I can, it could be usefull ;-)
I will try to recompile it with --enable-server.

If you compile it......you're a god !
