Zabbix agent is not supported ?

[ashrocks]

I am having this troubleshoot, which is most common troubleshoot.
I think its a simple fix but i am unable to find a solution to it.
My GUI shows that zabbix agent is not supported whenever i try to activate an Item.

The error log file of agent on the zabbix server says


zabbix_agentd [29108]: ERROR: File [/tmp/zabbix_agentd.pid] exists and is locked. Is this process already running ?

I don't know what the problem would be. The error log file on zabbix remote agent is empty.

I was able to establish a connection to telnet, and the local host configuration and the hostname are matching.

I am suspecting that it could be a simple fix which i am unable to identify.

Error on server log


7744:20101018:125417.326 Send list of active checks to [10.10.10.10] failed: host [10.10.10.11/zabbix] not found
7741:20101018:125431.818 Item [eve2 Client:system.cpu.load[<cpu> <,mode>]] error: Not supported by Zabbix Agent

Any help is appreciated.

Hi,

[eve2 Client:system.cpu.load[<cpu> <,mode>]] error: Not supported by Zabbix Agent

I am note sure that this is the only error you have but system.cpu.load[<cpu> <,mode>] is not syntactically correct.
In Zabbix manual, brackets (<>) are used for optional paramaters.
If default values are OK, you can use system.cpu.load[].
If you want to specify cpu and mode arguments, you can use system.cpu.load[1,avg1].

See manual for details: http://www.zabbix.com/documentation/...s#zabbix_agent
