Agent installation

Download the zabbix agent zip file on the VMS box.

Create a directory for Zabbbix agent, for example

$ create/dir dsa0:[zabbbixagt]

Extract the files from the downloaded .zip into the newly created directory

$ set default dsa0:[zabbbixagt]
$ unzip dev:[dir]vms_agent_zabbix.zip

should give

Archive:  dev:[dir]vms_agent_zabbix.zip;1

$ 

Copy the zabbix_logicals.template as a.com file

$ copy zabbix_logicals.template .com  

Edit it and update it if needed. At least update line

$ define/system/nolog zabbix_server localhost !! "my.zabbix.server" !! or "123.123.123.123"

Launch it, so that the logicals names for zabbix are defined

$ @zabbix_logicals

The logical name table ZABBIX_TABLE_MON is created,

Then launch the zabbix_discover.com

$ @zabbix_discover

This will create JSON files in zabbix_def_dir: with definition for your specific environment (disks, network interfaces,batch and print queues…)
