When asking a question like this, we will always ask to see the command that you ran. So best to include it upfront instead of waiting for us to ask because obviously we could never answer "why" without knowing what you did.

I know that you are in the sudoers with full root access. It was verified.
-
Error I am facing here is given below as shown
[lakshmana@dny-lnx-zabbix home]$ yum install epel-release
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
You need to be root to perform this command.Why this comes?
-
You are missing the sudo before the command.
-
The EPEL is already installed as part of a base install, but no harm in doing it twice. But the command would be:
sudo yum install epel-release -
I have started my iinstallation by the other command
Configure the ZabbixZone package repository and GPG key using command:
rpm --import http://repo.zabbix.com/RPM-GPG-KEY-ZABBIX
rpm -Uv http://repo.zabbix.com/zabbix/2.4/rhel/7/x86_64/zabbix-release-2.4-1.el7.noarch.rpm
-
Don't forget the sudo
-
Then the installtion of the Zabbix agent is done by the following command
Now, Install Zabbix server and agent using command:
sudo yum install zabbix-server-mysql zabbix-web-mysql zabbix-agent zabbix-java-gateway
which requires internet to download the package of 223 MB.
-
That is pretty small, it should be pretty fast.

In order to update the time zone go to the file given below
Edit file /etc/httpd/conf.d/zabbix:vi /etc/httpd/conf.d/zabbix.conf

Why are you changing the timezone? Is that part of a normal installation?
-
No,If needed means we can change
-
After the update of the time zone needs to update it by the following command
Restart the httpd
systemctl restart httpd
After the MySQL needs to configured here.If needed we need to install in the server -
Don't forget a space after all punctuation.
