AIX 6.1 with packages from AIX toolbox



 Description   

To get the agent to build on AIX 6.1, you need an additional include for sys/protosw.h, as described in http://www.zabbix.com/forum/archive/index.php/t-23015.html

I tried with 1.8.6, but it seems to be the same in trunk.

There's no patch necessary to build 2.0.3 agents on AIX 6.1 and 5.3.

I haven't tried with later 1.8s, but I think we can either close this issue as "wont fix" or "resolved".

2.0 agents should build on aix; we probably won't do this for 1.8 -> closing

I'm seeing it with Zabbix 3.0.21 agent on AIX 7.1 and trying to fix it as part of ZBX-6565. Apparently some AIX 7.1 TL0 systems are not getting updates and have a bug in /usr/include/netinet/in6_var.h. As a consequence liberfstat.h cannot be compiled unless sys/protosw.h is included before it.
