Hi all, I'm implementing a PG monitoring system on zabbix, using http://bucardo.org/wiki/Check_postgres
Everything's fine, however I cannot seem to use action=checkpoint without some intervention on permissions. See http://bucardo.org/check_postgres/check_postgres.pl.html#checkpoint The data directory is drwx------+ 11 postgres postgres 4096 Apr 2 13:37 /var/lib/pgsql/data so putting zabbix in the postgres group won't have any effect, and there is not enough information for us to be sure that we can add read permission to the group without impact, once the template I'm making is ported to a large number of boxes, some of which may have local policies we are not aware of. I'm left with the option of giving the zabbix agent daemon a limited sudo right, which I quite do not like because it will need to be replicated on all single boxes... is anyone aware of an alternative solution?
