Discover installed software products - 'unsupported item key'

[acatic1]

(searching 'zbx_notsupported' in Forums only gave me Russian results)



I'm trying to collect an inventory of installed software from Windows clients.

I started off of this effort: https://www.reddit.com/r/zabbix/comm...nventory_list/

On the endpoint, I have agent 5.0.2.

In its C:\Windows\Zabbix, I have a ps1 file containing:

Get-ItemProperty HKLM:\Software\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Uninstall\* | Select-Object DisplayName, DisplayVersion, Publisher, InstallDate | Format-Table -AutoSize > C:\Windows\Zabbix\InstalledProgramsList.txt

In the same folder, I have a bat file containing:

u/echo off del /s C:\Windows\Zabbix\*.txt >nul 2>null Powershell.exe -executionpolicy remotesigned -File C:\Windows\Zabbix\InstalledProgramsList.ps1 TYPE C:\Windows\Zabbix\InstalledProgramsList.txt

In the agent's conf file, I have set the following:

- AllowKey=system.run[*]

- UnsafeUserParameters=1

- UserParameter=Software.list[*],C:\Windows\Zabbix\InstalledProgramsList.bat

I have restarted the Zabbix agent service.

When I try testing it with .\zabbix_agentd -t Software.list[*], I get: Software.list[*] [m|ZBX_NOTSUPPORTED] [Unsupported item key.]

Other (pre-built) active agent keys show up fine on the server, so I'd imagine the general agent config/connectivity is fine.

What am I missing?

I've been poring over my work time and again, and learning lots along the way. Thank you for all guidance.

If you're not using parameters for your script, your key doesn't need to have "[*]", then try changing your agent line, removing it like this:

- UserParameter=Software.list,C:\Windows\Zabbix\Inst alledProgramsList.bat

Hope that helps.

-t --test <item key>

Test specified item and exit. Note: To return user parameter results as well, you must specify the configuration file (if it is not in the default location).

We ended up totally doing away with the ps1 and bat files.

In agent conf, set these lines:

UnsafeUserParameters=1

AllowKey=system.run[*]

UserParameter=Software.list[*],powershell.exe -command foreach($item in (Get-ChildItem "HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersi on\U ninstall")){ $item.getvalue('DisplayName') }

***[*] might not be needed for you. It wasn't needed for others, but it kept whining about "item does not allow parameters" whenever I'd remove it from agent and server.***

Restart zabbix agent service.




In Zabbix server, create active agent with following settings:

- Type: Zabbix agent (active)

- Key: Software.list[*] (again,[*] might not be needed for you, but whatever you do, make it same between agent and server)

Type of information: Text

Populates host inventory field: Software (Full details)
