 Description   

When installing Zabbix agent from packages, its configuration file will has the following line (for some reason configuration file in SVN doesn't have such line):

Include=/etc/zabbix/zabbix_agentd.d/*.conf

As far as I know this is done to allow installing custom .conf files with UserParameter's into /etc/zabbix/zabbix_agent.d/ without the need to modify configuration file provided with the package.

However, this is not the only potential use of separate .conf files, e.g. when loadable module is installed, it could provide a small module-specific .conf file with a single LoadModule configuration parameter, so the user does not have to edit configuration manually in order to start using module. At the moment this is only possible with agent modules.

Please add Include=... line to server's and proxy's configuration files.

Duplicates ZBXNEXT-4641.

Comment by richlv [ 2019 May 31 ]

The issue link is wrong, it is set so that this "is duplicated by", while it should be the other way around.

Comment by Glebs Ivanovskis [ 2019 May 31 ]

The "is duplicated by" link is correct, it points to a different issue. The "duplicates" link is simply missing.

Comment by richlv [ 2019 May 31 ]

Ah, sorry for missing that - exactly the case.

Adding missing link, thanks cyclone!
