Replace internal with external

[agehring]

Is is possible to create a UserParameter with the same name as a internal key?

I wrote a "replacement" for proc.num (in C) on OS X, but it doesn't do everything (yet) that the internal proc.num does.

Can I get the agent to call the external proc.num vs. the internal?


Thanks,

I believe this should work:

UserParameter=proc.num[*], your_script $1 $2 $3 ...

[agehring]

I tried that, and it still reports back ZBX_NOTSUPPORTED, but a UserParameter named lproc.num works...


So, I'l assume that you cannot use a "internal" name for a UserParameter...

Just wondering, what if you use simple proc.num (no [*])? Will it be supported?

[agehring]

It does work without the[*], but my program requires a variable to function...

Thanks,
