I like to think of SNMP as the backup plan. Answered: Joey Officer on July 6, 2021 Yes, you can monitor some metrics without Zabbix agents.

Hi Peter, We encourage you to post any technical questions directly on our user forum: https://forum.checkmk.com/ . I'm sure that our community members will be happy to provide tips on how to solve this issue. Regarding your question, there is a requirement to deliver our products for Windows only as MSI. Try using the following command line: msiexec /i check\_mk\_agent.msi /qn /L\*V agent\_msi.log From your post is not clear what is wrong with Powershell (many things can go wrong: access to the path, session rights, administrative rights etc.) Best, Cristian Answered: Cristian Anechitei on April 12, 2021 [Your answer](/discussions/35571-with-1-6-the-windows-agent-is-shipped-as-an-msi-before-it-was-an-exe-before-i-installed-cmk-on-a-client-by-a-powershell-on-a-central-server-which-with-msi-it-does-not-work/comments/new?remote=true) 0 Question on: OpsPilot [What is fusionreactor's hidden feature that mostly being missed by users?](/discussions/33649-what-is-fusionreactor-s-hidden-feature-that-mostly-being-missed-by-users) I might to know if there is some hidden features that we might missed as a user. i know it can track db connection, is there possible to get form parameters / files attached on the request ?
