NAME

zabbix_proxy - Zabbix proxy daemon

SYNOPSIS

zabbix_proxy [-c config-file]
zabbix_proxy [-c config-file] -R runtime-option
zabbix_proxy -h
zabbix_proxy -V

DESCRIPTION

zabbix_proxy is a daemon that collects monitoring data from devices and sends it to Zabbix server.

OPTIONS

-c, --config config-file
Use the alternate config-file instead of the default one.

-f, --foreground
Run Zabbix proxy in foreground.

-R, --runtime-control runtime-option
Perform administrative functions according to runtime-option.

Runtime control options

config_cache_reload
Reload configuration cache. Ignored if cache is being currently loaded. Active Zabbix proxy will connect to the Zabbix server and request configuration data. Default configuration file (unless -c option is specified) will be used to find PID file and signal will be sent to process, listed in PID file.

snmp_cache_reload
Reload SNMP cache.

housekeeper_execute
Execute the housekeeper. Ignored if housekeeper is being currently executed.

diaginfo[=section]
Log internal diagnostic information of the specified section. Section can be historycache, preprocessing, locks. By default diagnostic information of all sections is logged.

log_level_increase[=target]
Increase log level, affects all processes if target is not specified.

log_level_decrease[=target]
Decrease log level, affects all processes if target is not specified.

Log level control targets

process-type
All processes of specified type (configuration syncer, data sender, discoverer, heartbeat sender, history syncer, housekeeper, http poller, icmp pinger, ipmi manager, ipmi poller, java poller, poller, preprocessing manager, preprocessing worker, self-monitoring, snmp trapper, task manager, trapper, unreachable poller, vmware collector, history poller, availability manager, odbc poller)

process-type,N
Process type and number (e.g., poller,3)

pid
Process identifier, up to 65535. For larger values specify target as "process-type,N"

Profiling control targets

process-type
All processes of specified type (configuration syncer, data sender, discoverer, heartbeat sender, history syncer, housekeeper, http poller, icmp pinger, ipmi manager, ipmi poller, java poller, poller, preprocessing manager, preprocessing worker, self-monitoring, snmp trapper, task manager, trapper, unreachable poller, vmware collector, history poller, availability manager, odbc poller)

process-type,N
Process type and number (e.g., history syncer,1)

pid
Process identifier, up to 65535. For larger values specify target as "process-type,N"

scope
Profiling scope (rwlock, mutex, processing) can be used with process type (e.g., history syncer,1,processing)

-h, --help
Display this help and exit.

-V, --version
Output version information and exit.
