Ignored if Hostname is set.

This parameter is supported since Zabbix 1.8.6.
HousekeepingFrequency-24abbix 执行 housekeeping 的频率 (单位为小时)。
housekeeping负责从数据库中删除过期的信息。
注意: 为了防止 housekeeper 负载过大 (例如, 当历史和趋势周期大大减小时), 对于每一个监控项,不会在一个housekeeping周期内删除超过4倍HousekeepingFrequency 的过期数据。 因此, 如果 HousekeepingFrequency 是 1小时, 一个周期内不会删除超过4小时的过期信息 (从最旧的数据开始) 。
备注: 为降低 server压力, housekeeping将在server启动以后,延迟30分钟执行。 因此, 如果 HousekeepingFrequency 是1小时,serverg启动30分后执行第一次 housekeeping , 然后按1小时为周期重复执行。从Zabbix 2.4.0以后有了这种延迟行为。
从Zabbix 3.0.0开始,可以设置HousekeepingFrequency为0来禁止自动housekeeping。 此时 housekeeping 只能通过 housekeeper_execute 启动, 在一个housuekeeping周期内删除的过期信息时长为从最后一次housekeeping以来到配置周期的4倍,不少于4小时且不大于4天。
HousekeepingFrequencyno0-241How often Zabbix will perform housekeeping procedure (in hours).
Housekeeping is removing outdated information from the database.
Note: To prevent housekeeper from being overloaded (for example, when configuration parameters ProxyLocalBuffer or ProxyOfflineBuffer are greatly reduced), no more than 4 times HousekeepingFrequency hours of outdated information are deleted in one housekeeping cycle. Thus, if HousekeepingFrequency is 1, no more than 4 hours of outdated information (starting from the oldest entry) will be deleted per cycle.
Note: To lower load on proxy startup housekeeping is postponed for 30 minutes after proxy start. Thus, if HousekeepingFrequency is 1, the very first housekeeping procedure after proxy start will run after 30 minutes, and will repeat every hour thereafter. This postponing behavior is in place since Zabbix 2.4.0.
Since Zabbix 3.0.0 it is possible to disable automatic housekeeping by setting HousekeepingFrequency to 0. In this case the housekeeping procedure can only be started by housekeeper_execute runtime control option and the period of outdated information deleted in one housekeeping cycle is 4 times the period since the last housekeeping cycle, but not less than 4 hours and not greater than 4 days.
Include以在配置文件中指定单个文件或者指定一个目录(所有文件在该目录中)。
只有在指定的目录中包含相关文件, 才可以使用正则匹配的通配符 。例如: /absolute/path/to/config/files/.conf. Zabbix 2.4.0以后都支持模式匹配。
参看关于限制条件特例
IncludenoYou may include individual files or all files in a directory in the configuration file.
To only include relevant files in the specified directory, the asterisk wildcard character is supported for pattern matching. For example: /absolute/path/to/config/files/.conf. Pattern matching is supported since Zabbix 2.4.0.

Parameters

ParameterMandatoryRangeDefaultDescription
AllowRootno0Allow the proxy to run as ‘root’. If disabled and the proxy is started by ‘root’, the proxy will try to switch to the ‘zabbix’ user instead. Has no effect if started under a regular user.
0 - do not allow
1 - allow
CacheSizeno128K-64G8MSize of configuration cache, in bytes.
Shared memory size, for storing host and item data.
ConfigFrequencyno1-6048003600How often proxy retrieves configuration data from Zabbix server in seconds.
Active proxy parameter. Ignored for passive proxies (see ProxyMode parameter).
DataSenderFrequencyno1-36001Proxy will send collected data to the server every N seconds. Note that active proxy will still poll Zabbix server every second for remote command tasks.
Active proxy parameter. Ignored for passive proxies (see ProxyMode parameter).
DBHostnolocalhostDatabase host name.
In case of MySQL localhost or empty string results in using a socket. In case of PostgreSQL
only empty string results in attempt to use socket.
In case of Oracle empty string results in using the Net Service Name connection method; in this case consider using the TNSADMIN environment variable to specify the directory of the tnsnames.ora file.
DBNameyesDatabase name or path to database file for SQLite3 (multi-process architecture of Zabbix does not allow to use in-memory database, e.g. :memory:, file::memory:?cache=shared or file:memdb1?mode=memory&cache=shared).

Warning: Do not attempt to use the same database Zabbix server is using.
In case of Oracle, if the Net Service Name connection method is used, specify the service name from tnsnames.ora or set to empty string; set the TWO_TASK environment variable if DBName is set to empty string.
DBPasswordnoDatabase password. Ignored for SQLite.
Comment this line if no password is used.

DBTLSConnectnoSetting this option enforces to use TLS connection to database:
required - connect using TLS
verify_ca - connect using TLS and verify certificate
verify_full - connect using TLS, verify certificate and verify that database identity specified by DBHost matches its certificate

On MySQL starting from 5.7.11 and PostgreSQL the following values are supported: “required”, “verify”, “verify_full”. On MariaDB starting from version 10.2.6 “required” and “verify_full” values are supported.
By default not set to any option and the behavior depends on database configuration.

This parameter is supported since Zabbix 5.0.0.
DBTLSCAFileno

Make sure that fping binary has root ownership and SUID flag set!

Maximum length: 128
HostnameItemnosystem.hostnameItem used for setting Hostname if it is undefined (this will be run on the proxy similarly as on an agent).
Does not support UserParameters, performance counters or aliases, but does support system.run[].

Ignored if Hostname is set.
HousekeepingFrequencyno0-241How often Zabbix will perform housekeeping procedure (in hours).
Housekeeping is removing outdated information from the database.
Note: To prevent housekeeper from being overloaded (for example, when configuration parameters ProxyLocalBuffer or ProxyOfflineBuffer are greatly reduced), no more than 4 times HousekeepingFrequency hours of outdated information are deleted in one housekeeping cycle. Thus, if HousekeepingFrequency is 1, no more than 4 hours of outdated information (starting from the oldest entry) will be deleted per cycle.
Note: To lower load on proxy startup housekeeping is postponed for 30 minutes after proxy start. Thus, if HousekeepingFrequency is 1, the very first housekeeping procedure after proxy start will run after 30 minutes, and will repeat every hour thereafter.
Since Zabbix 3.0.0 it is possible to disable automatic housekeeping by setting HousekeepingFrequency to 0. In this case the housekeeping procedure can only be started by housekeeper_execute runtime control option and the period of outdated information deleted in one housekeeping cycle is 4 times the period since the last housekeeping cycle, but not less than 4 hours and not greater than 4 days.
IncludenoYou may include individual files or all files in a directory in the configuration file.
To only include relevant files in the specified directory, the asterisk wildcard character is supported for pattern matching. For example: /absolute/path/to/config/files/*.conf.
See special notes about limitations.

Maximum supported value depends on the system, too high values may be silently truncated to the ‘implementation-specified maximum’.
ListenIPno0.0.0.0List of comma delimited IP addresses that the trapper should listen on.
Trapper will listen on all network interfaces if this parameter is missing.
ListenPortno1024-3276710051Listen port for trapper.
LoadModulenoModule to load at proxy startup. Modules are used to extend functionality of the proxy.
Formats:
LoadModule=<module.so>
LoadModule=<path/module.so>
LoadModule=</abs_path/module.so>
Either the module must be located in directory specified by LoadModulePath or the path must precede the module name. If the preceding path is absolute (starts with ‘/‘) then LoadModulePath is ignored.

ProxyModeno0-10Proxy operating mode.
0 - proxy in the active mode
1 - proxy in the passive mode
Note that (sensitive) proxy configuration data may become available to parties having access to the Zabbix server trapper port when using an active proxy. This is possible because anyone may pretend to be an active proxy and request configuration data; authentication does not take place.
ProxyOfflineBufferno1-7201Proxy will keep data for N hours in case of no connectivity with Zabbix server.
Older data will be lost.
ServerPortno1024-3276710051Port of Zabbix trapper on Zabbix server.
