Was wondering if you could help me out. I'm trying to run a bash script on a zabbix server that will pull running configs from hosts to a TFTP server. I have the following script and it works well. The only issue is that where it says hostIP=$1 and hostName=$2 it only works if i manually enter the IP and hostname either in the script or when I call it. Is there anyway I can run this script without having to manually enter the hostname and IP? I have like 3000 devices and would like this to actively pull as configs change.
Within Zabbix, under Confguration of Actions, I have the command running on the Zabbix server to run the bash script with HOST.IP HOST.HOST and was hoping this would pull the ip and hostname automatically from zabbix but doesn't seem to be the case. In Conditions, I have it such that whenever someone wr a configuration, it'll trigger an alarm and should run the script. Once it triggers the alarm, I'm hoping that there is some method that would allow me to pull the ip and hostname from the alert and run the script on that IP/host. Can anyone help me out?
#!/bin/bash
#accept host IP and TFTP-server from Zabbix
hostIP=$1
hostName=$2
tftp="x.x.x.x" (where this is an ip)

Looks like your problem is not getting parameters passed as you expect. Please show the full line from the action command. As a test, make the script print positional parameters to a file. What does it get from Zabbix?

Hi is this what you mean? /usr/lib/zabbix/externalscripts/testbackup.sh $HOST.IP$HOST.HOST. The other parameters are Step 1 to 1, Operation type is Remote Command, Target list is Current host, Type is Custom Script, Execute on Zabbix Server. its running v 3.0

And so I'm not 100% how zabbix works, why its not working now, but theoretically if i do a wr on any host, I feel like it should be running this script and was hoping hostip and host.host were fields that would be autopopulated based on the host I did a wr on

Did you test by printing the received parameters to a file? That would tell whether the script is invoked at all and what data it gets. Besides that, you are missing the space in "$HOST.IP$HOST.HOST", and I would recommend doublequoting both values, just in case.

Hi so again, this works if i manually run the script like ./Backup.sh (Enter Host IP) (Enter hostname) but I don't want to keep manually running the script like this and enter hostip and hostname because i have like 3000 hosts to get through. is there anyway to change it such that the hostip and hostname gets automatically pulled from the switch i do a wr on the config

Hi so again, this works if i manually run the script like ./Backup.sh (Enter Host IP) (Enter hostname) but I don't want to keep manually running the script like this and enter hostip and hostname because i have like 3000 hosts to get through. is there anyway to change it such that the hostip and hostname gets automatically pulled from the switch i do a wr on the config
