Is it possible to set the AllowKey parameter?

[tgglatitude]

Hello everyone,

Is there any way for me to add AllowKey: "system.run[*] to my chart's deployment?

I'm deploying the zabbix-agent2 and already tried:

zabbixAgent:
   config:
     AllowKey: "system.run[*]"

extraEnv:
  - name: ZBX_ENABLEREMOTECOMMANDS
    value: "1"
  - name: ZBX_ALLOWKEY
    value: "system.run[*]"

zabbixAgent:
  ZBX_ENABLEREMOTECOMMANDS: 1
  ZBX_ALLOWKEY: "system.run[*]"
  ZBX_LOGREMOTECOMMANDS: 1

But it never works, I always get the error Unknown metric: system.run on my Zabbix Server's UI and can't see the parameter being set. Is there any workaround for this?

Hello @tgglatitude!

According to the Docker Hub for zabbix-agent2 (https://hub.docker.com/r/zabbix/zabbix-agent2), there is a list of extra environment variables!

That means you can do something like:

My example:

zabbixAgent:
  enabled: true
  # Other hidden parameters
  # [...]
  extraEnv:
    - name: ZBX_ALLOWKEY
      value: "system.run[*]"

This configuration will create the line AllowKey=system.run[*] inside the /etc/zabbix/zabbix_agent2_item_keys.conf file in the zabbix-agent container.

Change the values ​​according to your needs.

Can you test this?

Hey @aeciopires, thanks for the quick reply!

In the end, the issue was with my cluster configuration, that wasn't properly applying the env variables, always overwriting the values I set with the default ones. I could solve it by forcing a ConfigMap to be applied during the deployment. Everything is perfect now!
