OPTIONS

20       -c, --config config-file
21              Use the alternate config-file instead of the default one.
22
23       -f, --foreground
24              Run Zabbix agent in foreground.
25
26       -R, --runtime-control runtime-option
27              Perform administrative functions according to runtime-option.
28
29           Runtime control options
30               userparameter_reload
31                   Reload user parameters from the configuration file
32
33               log_level_increase[=target]
34                   Increase  log level, affects all processes if target is not
35                   specified
36
37               log_level_decrease[=target]
38                   Decrease log level, affects all processes if target is  not
39                   specified
40
41           Log level control targets
42               process-type
43                   All  processes of specified type (active checks, collector,
44                   listener)
45
46               process-type,N
47                   Process type and number (e.g., listener,3)
48
49               pid Process identifier, up to 65535. For larger values  specify
50                   target as "process-type,N"
51
52       -p, --print
53              Print  known  items  and exit.  For each item either generic de‐
54              faults are used, or specific defaults for testing are  supplied.
55              These defaults are listed in square brackets as item key parame‐
56              ters.  Returned values are enclosed in square brackets and  pre‐
57              fixed  with  the type of the returned value, separated by a pipe
58              character.  For user parameters type is always t, as  the  agent
59              can  not determine all possible return values.  Items, displayed
60              as working, are not guaranteed to work from the Zabbix server or
61              zabbix_get  when  querying a running agent daemon as permissions
62              or environment may be different.  Returned value types are:
63
64           d   Number with a decimal part.
65
66           m   Not supported.  This could be caused by querying an  item  that
67               only  works in the active mode like a log monitoring item or an
68               item that requires multiple collected values.   Permission  is‐
69               sues  or incorrect user parameters could also result in the not
70               supported state.
71
72           s   Text.  Maximum length not limited.
73
74           t   Text.  Same as s.
75
76           u   Unsigned integer.
77
78       -t, --test item-key
79              Test single item and exit.  See --print for output description.
80
81       -h, --help
82              Display this help and exit.
83
84       -V, --version
85              Output version information and exit.
