I, however, recommend only using active checks on an IPFire instance, so that the agent on the instance will only actively contact the Zabbix server to request a list of checks to perform instead of waiting for the server to contact the agent for every check. This frees up some resources valuable to smaller systems and makes the agent not to listen on any TCP port, which is a possible attack surface less. Users with an existing installation will have to manually add the parameter to their config. This will be documented in the wiki.

So please do. As you will, or maybe already have noticed, I redid/corrected my last patch where I set the number of agent forks to 0 on new installations. It is now set to 3 in my newest patch, which was the default in previous Zabbix agent versions. I will add an upgrade note about that in the IPFire wiki zabbix_agentd addon page. Maybe that is also worth mentioning in the blog post: that users with an existing zabbix_agentd installation may also want to lower the number of forks the agent starts, especially when running it on a mini appliance; with a link to that wiki page.

I have still an old mini appliance. I don't have resource problems with it during normal operations, but it is rather slow on some operations (especially using the log viewer and sometimes executing pakfire and such) so I figure, the less resources are taken by non-core elements of IPFire, the better.

I agree. Neither of the should run out resources. Mainly because they both have a lot of RAM. The CPU in the old mini appliance is a little bit slow, at least when it comes to single-core performance. The new one is substantially faster. But regardless of how fast it is, we should have some limits in place so that the agent cannot bring down the entire system. -Michael > Robin > >> >> I have merged the patch.
