1 - Summary

This guide will show you how to install the Zabbix Server in FreeBSD. The
Zabbix Server is the server software that installs on a server and receives
information from network devices. Zabbix is an open source monitoring solution.
This has been tested in FreeBSD 9.0 amd64.


2 - Dependencies

Install the apache package. Apache is a web server that will host the web pages
that display the server data.
# sudo pkg_add -r apache22
Password:

Find where the apache daemon was installed to.
# pkg_info -L apache-2.2.* | grep sbin
/usr/local/sbin/ab
/usr/local/sbin/apachectl
/usr/local/sbin/apxs
/usr/local/sbin/checkgid
/usr/local/sbin/dbmmanage
/usr/local/sbin/envvars
/usr/local/sbin/htcacheclean
/usr/local/sbin/htdbm
/usr/local/sbin/htdigest
/usr/local/sbin/htpasswd
/usr/local/sbin/httpd
/usr/local/sbin/httxt2dbm
/usr/local/sbin/logresolve
/usr/local/sbin/rotatelogs
/usr/local/sbin/split-logfile

Find the options for the apache service.
# pkg_info -L apache-2.2.* | grep rc.d
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/apache22
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/htcacheclean
# grep -e 'bool\|str' /usr/local/etc/rc.d/apache22
# apache22_enable (bool):      Set to "NO" by default.
# apache22_profiles (str):     Set to "" by default.
# apache22limits_enable (bool):Set to "NO" by default.
# apache22_flags (str):        Set to "" by default.
# apache22limits_args (str):   Default to "-e -C daemon"
# apache22_http_accept_enable (bool): Set to "NO" by default.
# apache22_fib (str):         Set an altered default network view for apache

Edit /etc/rc.conf.local so that the apache service will start when the system
starts up. Somewhere in the file add the following.
  apache22_enable="YES"
# sudo vi /etc/rc.conf.local
Password:

Find where the configuration file should be put.
# grep httpd.conf /usr/local/etc/rc.d/apache22 
required_files=/usr/local/etc/apache22/httpd.conf
# strings /usr/local/sbin/httpd | grep httpd.conf
 -D SERVER_CONFIG_FILE="etc/apache22/httpd.conf"
etc/apache22/httpd.conf
        directive in your httpd.conf file to list a non-root

You will need to modify the original configuration file. Add the following. In
this example, I set the websites to be stored in an alernate directory. By the
way, there is already a group named it which includes an account for the web
developers.

Install the mysql-server package. MySQL is a database server that will store
the information the Zabbix Agents send from the network devices.
# sudo pkg_add -r mysql55-server
Password:

Find where the mysql daemon was installed to.
# pkg_info -L mysql-server-5.5.* | grep mysqld
/usr/local/man/man1/mysqld_multi.1.gz
/usr/local/man/man1/mysqld_safe.1.gz

/usr/local/bin/mysqldumpslow
/usr/local/lib/mysql/libmysqld.a

Find the options for the mysql service.
# pkg_info -L mysql-server-5.5.17 | grep rc.d

# grep -e 'bool\|str' /usr/local/etc/rc.d/mysql-server

# mysql_dbdir (str):    Default to "/var/db/mysql"
# mysql_pidfile (str):  Custum PID file path and name.
# mysql_args (str):     Custom additional arguments to be passed

Edit /etc/rc.conf.local so that the mysql service will start when the system
starts up. Somewhere in the file add the following.
  mysql_enable="YES"
  mysql_dbdir="/data/databases/mysql"
  mysql_pidfile="/data/databases/mysql/mysqld.pid"
  mysql_args="--socket=/data/databases/mysql/mysql.sock"

You will need to modify the original configuration file. Have the following. In
this example, I set the databases to be stored in an alternate directory using
InnoDB. By the way, there is already a group named it which includes an account
for the web developers. When mysql was installed, a user named mysql was
created.

Some system level changes need to be made relating to shared memory. Check to
see what the current page size is. Aftwards, check the current values for the
maximum number of pages available for shared memory and the maximum shared
memory segment sizes in bytes. Modify /etc/sysctl.conf to make the changes
permanent. This will increase the maximum number of pages available for shared
memory to be 8 GB and will increase the maximum amount of memory to 128 MB for
any cache related parameters in the zabbix server configuration.

# sysctl -a | grep -E "shmall|shmmax"

Modify /etc/sysctl.conf to make the changes permanent. This will increase the
the maximum number of pages available for shared memory to be 8 GB and will
increase the maximum amount of memory to 128 MB for any cache related options
in the zabbix server configuration.

Navigate your web browser to https://server.test.com/. You will see the
screen. This is a wizard that installs the web frontend. Click on Next.



The next screen shows the check of pre-requisites. Click on Next.



Here is the rest of the pre-requisites.



The next screen shows the configuration for the database connection. You will
need to type in the zabbix database name, zabbix database username and zabbix
database password and then click on "Test connection." After that says OK,
