Install Zabbix agent on Solaris 11

Hi all,

Solved my own problem so thought I would share it.

Download the pre-compiled Zabbix agents from zabbix
In my case it was
Code:
zabbix_agents_3.2.0.solaris10.sparc.tar.gz

(although its for Solaris 10 it will work on 11)

Extract the files
Code:
tar -xvzf zabbix_agents_3.2.0.solaris10.sparc.tar.gz

You will have the following folders

Code:
sbin/
bin/
conf/

Now move the content of the files to there system folders eg
Code:
mv /export/home/username/conf/zabbix_agentd.conf /etc/
mv /export/home/username/conf/zabbix_agentd /etc/
mv /export/home/username/bin/zabbix_sender /bin/
mv /export/home/username/bin/zabbix_get /bin/
mv /export/home/username/sbin/zabbix_agentd /sbin/

Edit your zabbix_agentd.conf to point to your Zabbix server and add the host servers name.

Now run :
Code:
/sbin/zabbix_agentd -c /etc/zabbix_agentd.conf

to start the agent

Add it to your Zabbix server and your done.

Note that the pre-compiled Zabbix agent for Solaris was not compiled without TLS support

Also, as an option, or you can compile zabbix_agent from the source files from
Code:
sourceforge /projects/zabbix/files/ZABBIX20Latest20Stable/3.4.15/zabbix-3.4.15.tar.gz/download

Install the required dependencies and gcc (gnu-compiler) + make.
untar the source code

Follow this manual: on
Code:
zabbix documentation/3.4/manual/installation/install#installing_zabbix_daemons

Code:
./configure --enable-agent

The zabbix_sender, zabbix_get and zabbix_agentd + conf file will be place under the /usr/local/ directories.

OV Server on 11 - need to install agent?

Client has got a few machines with logical domains on. But I can't see the the ovs-agent service? Quite possibly I guess this has been set up with just logical domains. With no agent. Do you need to use the agent only if planning to manage with OV Manager? (6 Replies)
