Team AstLinux,

I recently tried to enable Zabbix and a custom Zabbix Agent user
parameter to diagnose a fleeting, intermittent networking problem.  

The AstLinux documentation (here [1]) was a great start.  However, I
ran into trouble while trying to "include" a custom user parameter
using added file /mnt/kd/zabbix_agentd.userparams.conf as suggested by
the instructions.  That file contained a single line starting with
"UserParameter=".  

After some troubleshooting, I found a comment in
/usr/bin/zabbix_agentd.conf explaining to edit
/mnt/kd/zabbix_agentd.conf instead.  (Note the missing "userparams"
part.)  Much to my surprise, using that file name prevented the
zabbix_agent from starting.  It wasn't until I put the whole
configuration (including Server, ListenPort, etc.) into
/mnt/kd/zabbix_agentd.conf that the agent began working.  The custom
UserParameter, added as the last line, is also working.  

Is this the expected behavior?  Or is there something that I can do
to allow the auto-generated web parameters to be used by zabbix agent
- while adding the UserParameter via a separate file as suggested by
the documentation?

Thanks for any insight.

Dan​
