Zabbix 1.4.4 packages for Ubuntu

Step right up and get your Zabbix 1.4.4 packages for Ubuntu 7.10 (Gutsy Gibbon)! Packages are available for i386 and amd64 architectures (sorry, I don’t have a powerpc machine). To get them via apt add the following to your /etc/apt/sources.list:1

deb http://packages.devsuki.com/ubuntu/ gutsy main
deb-src http://packages.devsuki.com/ubuntu/ gutsy main

You can also download them manually.

Source packages were pulled from Debian sid and two modifications were made:

  1. postgresql-8.2 was added as an alternative to postgresql-8.1.
  2. The init.d scripts were modified to create /var/run/zabbix-* directories on start.2

Enjoy!

  1. You may want to download the package signing key and add it with apt-key.
  2. Ubuntu uses tmpfs for /var/run, so these directories will disappear on reboot. I followed the suggestion in this zabbix forum post.

    I currently use zabbix to monitor a really large environment (more than 320 servers)

    I’ve founded a wonderful plugin that is more than a plugin and the others monitoring systems don’t have nothing of similar, and nothing that go inside oracle so deeply.

    In the hope that someone found useful my comment
