          @Sparkum Finally got a windows vm setup and got the agent working.

          alt text

          This are the steps I took to get it working:

          Download windows pre-compiled agent:
          http://www.zabbix.com/downloads/3.0.0/zabbix_agents_3.0.0.win.zip

          From an elevated cmd promt
          I went inside the extracted folders to install the zabbix agent as a service:
          zabbix_agents_3.0.0.win\bin\win64\

          Executed the following command to install the service and point to the config file:
          zabbix_agent_d.exe --config "..\..\conf\zabbix_agentd.win.conf" --install

          Now we need to edit the config file to point to our zabbix server:
          zabbix_agents_3.0.0.win\conf\zabbix_agentd.win.conf

          Modify the following options:

          Server=Zabbix Server IP Address
ServerActive=Zabbix Server IP Address
Hostname= FQDN of windows host

          Went back to the bin folder and started the service:
          ..\zabbix_agents_3.0.0.win\bin\win64\zabbix_agent_d.exe --start

          Allow the zabbix_agentd.exe executable throught the windows firewall.

          Add the host to the Zabbix Server
          alt text

          In new host settings add:

          # HOST TAB 
Host name = FQDN of your windows host
Groups = Use a preset group or create a new one
Agent Interfaces = IP address of Windows Host
Enabled =  Checked.

#Templates Tab
Link new templates = Template OS Windows

          Save your newly created host and wait for a couple of minutes to get it talking to your server
          alt text

          Its done and reporting =).

            I'm getting closer!

            So the only thing I did from what you wrote was

            Hostname= FQDN of windows host

            But after that I have a red Z!
            Progress!

            Currently getting

             Get value from agent failed: ZBX_TCP_READ() failed: [104] Connection reset by peer

            I'll try to google my way through that now!

            Thanks

              I just upgraded my install from Zabbix 3.0.5 to 3.2.1 painlessly.

              yum -y install http://repo.zabbix.com/zabbix/3.2/rhel/7/x86_64/zabbix-release-3.2-1.el7.noarch.rpm
yum clean all
yum -y upgrade

              Only poked around a little but everything seems to be working.

              I only have 6 devices reporting in on this for the moment. Been meaning to get this fully functional for months now.

                Same here I really need to wipe mine and re-do it all and get some better info out of it like Performance and IOPS on the servers etc, instead of just ping to see if up or down

                  Had to modify the instructions a bit to handle SELinux. The below have been added to the first post already.

                  Install SELinux tools.

                  yum -y install setroubleshoot setools

                  After your system is up and running, reboot. You should hopefully have a problem with SELinux blocking a couple of things.

                  [root@zabbix ~]# sealert -a /var/log/audit/audit.log | grep zabbix
SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/zabbix_server_mysql from using the setrlimit access on a process.
<snip lots of text>
SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/zabbix_agentd from using the setrlimit access on a process.

                  Now that these errors are in the audit log, we can set up SELinux to allow it.

                  If anyone knows SELinux well enough to create the policies needed without waiting for a fail, just let me know. I will be happy to update these instructions.

                  ausearch -c 'zabbix_server' --raw | audit2allow -M my-zabbixserver
semodule -i my-zabbixserver.pp
ausearch -c 'zabbix_agentd' --raw | audit2allow -M my-zabbixagentd
semodule -i my-zabbixagentd.pp

                    Did anyone get Zabbix working over SSL? I'm getting a 403 error when I try to setup the certificates.

                      I'm planning to do this and I think the best way (from what I've read) is to use a proxy to handle the SSL cert for you

                        Does this mean proxying internal connections as well?

                        I know Scott loves his LANLess design, so maybe my question is meaningless, because to him there is no internal?

                          Yes, you could setup a proxy on the same box as Zabbix.

                            Zabbix makes their own Proxy as well just as a side note

                              I wasn't aware. I've got the SSL "working" kind of but need to troubleshoot my virtualhost declaration as to why it isn't working.

                                Wish I could help more. This is something I am doing in the very near future though.

                                  I'm about setup Zabbix with above script on CentOS 8.

                                  Do I just need to update the link below, to get latest Zabbix version? all remains same?

                                    This is a 4 year old guide, no guarantees.

                                    But yes, it will likely be that easy.
