From SME Server

If I just install the zabbix-server contrib, will that include all I need to monitor the smeserver the server is installed on? Or do I need to install the agent as well?

It would be great to include in this documentation the steps needed to install and fully configure via db command lines the full monitoring of the smeserver the zabbix server is installed on. This would provide enough of an example for users to get going with installing the agent on other smeservers...

Thanks


Hi. I've just added a small note on how-to monitor the localhost here

I know this documentation isn't finished. I have too few time to spend on it, and would really need help.

I'm runnign SME8B6 and trying to install zabbix from source (had 1.8.5 now on my server). I'd like to start to create packages to RHEL5/Centos5 and update packages available as soon as SME8 is released. Maybe we can use the http://wiki.contribs.org/SME8.0_Contribs_QA area for tell everyone our efforts: http://wiki.contribs.org/index.php?title=SME8.0_Contribs_QA&action=edit&section=118

I've already compiled 1.8.5 for both sme7 and SME8, those package are available in our repo (Fws). I havne't pushed this version in smecontribs repo because the web interface is not compatible with PHP4, so it would break compatibility with standard SME7, but the agent, proxy and server packages works. I need to add a note to the wiki page about this.
