zabbix needs to wait a bit on databases instead of just closing down

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      Any system where it is not guaranteed that the database will be up before Zabbix server tries to start will yield a non-started Zabbix server. An example of this is Fedora 16 with Postgresql and systemd.

      I believe the fix is fairly simple. Zabbix should wait for a time being if it cannot connect to the database. Maybe a loop of sorts with 250ms between connection attempts and a maximum of 10 seconds of waiting?

      Also, if the database goes down, Zabbix should try to reattach. (It may do this already.)

      https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=729753 is this bug and hasn't seen any traffic.
