  • zabbix_agent - added option to change between HTTP/HTTPS with zabbix_repo_yum_schema.
  • zabbix_agent - can also install the zabbix-agent2 application when zabbix_agent2 is set to true.

  • zabbix_server - now supports startpreprocessors setting and encryption when connecting to database (see #164).

  • zabbix_proxy (role) - only install the sql files that needs to be executed for when zabbix_repo is set to epel.
  • zabbix_server - StartPreprocessors only works with version 4.2 or higher. When a lower version is used, it will not be added to the configuration.
