The section provides details about monitoring a host which has ZABBIX agent running. You must have the agent installed
and configured properly.
No hosts defined yet.
We have ZABBIX agent running on our ZABBIX server and we want to monitor this server.
Click on "Create host". Enter all required details. We will use standard template Unix_t in order to simplify configuration.
If a template is not used, we should manually add Items and Triggers to the host afterwards.
The host is created and it has exactly the same items and triggers as Unix_t has.
Back to the list of hosts. We see our host in the list.
Let check if ithis host has any items to monitor. Menu->Configuration->Items:
Yes! What about triggers? Menu->Configuration->Triggers:
Good. It is time to see what information is available. Go to Menu->Latest data:
It is time to see some graphs. Click on Graph.
.. and finally triggers. Menu->Status of triggers:
All right, the host is under ZABBIX control. After the host is added, we may be interested in:
- Modifying list of monitored items
- Modifying list of triggers items
- Adjusting refresh rate for items
- Adding user notificationules
