After upgrading to CU 201, Zabbix reports the Kernel Logging Server is not running. It looks like the kernel log is getting updated in the WebUI, and /var/log/messages is getting new entries. Did something change with the logging process name? I only started using Zabbix recently, so I am not sure what it is looking for.
This is normal and not to be alarmed of: Since CU 201 syslogd and klogd are now combined in a single syslog daemon. In Zabbix the “Logging server”, which is now the combined daemon, is still monitored.
The Kernel logging daemon has been removed from IPFire, hence it is no longer reported by the Zabbix agent.
Initially this indeed gives the error that the process is no longer running.. (as that is the case).. but after some time, as the service is “auto-discovered” and is now no longer “auto-discovered”, the whole monitoring of this now removed service should automatically get removed from your IPFire host in Zabbix.
See for more details: ipfire-2.x git commit bb6047bad4a8e5b93d192c6af632c5fa5065a4de
OK. Great. Thanks very much for the explanation.
