12 What's new in Zabbix 4.4.7

Log items

Two new options have been added to the log, log.count, logrt and logrt.count items:

• mtime-reread - non-unique records, reread file if its modification time changes but size does not
• mtime-noreread - non-unique records, do not reread file if its modification time changes but size does not

For log and log.count items these options have been added as a new <options> parameter, e.g.

log[file,<regexp>,<encoding>,<maxlines>,<mode>,<output>,<maxdelay>,<options>]

For logrt and logrt.count these options have been added to the already existing <options> parameter.

Zabbix agent 2

A new command line option has been added to Zabbix agent 2:

-v, --verbose

to be used with -t/-p options. It will print debugging information, which might be useful for plugin developers.

JSONPath

Zabbix implementation of JSONPath now supports the extraction of matching element names with a ~ suffix. It returns the name of the matched object or an index in string format of the matched array item.

Encryption

User-configured ciphersuites are now supported for GnuTLS and OpenSSL.
