Greetings,
can i use zabbix as substitution of friendly pinger.
i have followed some instruction of crateing simple check but without success
Most likely you don't have 'fping' installed, or the Zabbix server user does not have the ability to execute it.
In answer to your question though, yes, Zabbix works very well as a friendly pinger, simply set the item check delay to whatever you choose.
and can i crate map that shows ping status of host one when they are on and one that when they are off
Certainly, you simply create a trigger against the ping item, create a map, add the host, then select the trigger you created for the ping.
can some simplification of zabbix to be done only todo this.
adding host is very long process:)
i have maki it work but i have to use only webinterface.
can i write host directly in DB:)
