vfs.file.cksum issue

[tob]

Hi,

Anyone got any clue why this item will not work? (running ol 1.6.6)

vfs.file.cksum[/root/.ssh/known_hosts]

tried the obvious \ , single and dubbel quotes... as well as the rights needless to say...

You are not alone. I ran into the very same problem yesterday, using Zabbix 1.6.5

I added this item vfs.file.cksum[/etc/bacula/bacula-fd.conf] to about 40 servers. Most of the servers are running the same OS and the same zabbix_agent. However, 7 of these servers would give me the Zabbix Unsupported error, the other servers had no problems.

I could get a value using zabbix_agentd -t , but Unsupported when using zabbix_get from the Zabbix server.

And even though the Item above would fail on these 7 servers, I could successfully monitor other random files using vfs.file.cksum on these very same servers.

In the end, on those 7 servers I used vfs.file.time

I think it's a bug but I couldn't find any bug reports, and I'm not sure whether bugs get fixed in older versions.
