zabbix_agent_userparam

This LRWP can be used to maintain zabbix user parameters in the zabbix_agentd.d directory.

Create a new rule like this

zabbix_ng_agent_userparam 'thin' do
  identifier 'my.zabbix_identifier'
  command    'my_zabbix_command --with --arguments'
end

You can also use your own templates

zabbix_ng_agent_userparam 'postgresql' do
  cookbook 'my_cookbook'
  source   'zabbix_parameters_postgresql.erb'
  variables :my => 'var'
end

zabbix_agent_ssl

This LWRP monitores the SSL expiration date

zabbix_ng_agent_ssl '/etc/nginx/certs/server.crt'

You can also specify a custom zabbix identifier (defaults to ssl.certificate)

zabbixng__agent_ssl 'my custom certificate monitoring' do
  certificate '/etc/ssl/mycert.pem'
  identifier  'custom.zabbix_identifier'
end
