AWS EC2 by HTTP
Overview
For Zabbix version: 6.2 and higher
The template to monitor AWS EC2 and attached AWS EBS volumes by HTTP via Zabbix that works without any external scripts.
Most of the metrics are collected in one go, thanks to Zabbix bulk data collection.
NOTE
This template uses the GetMetricData CloudWatch API calls to list and retrieve metrics.
For more information, please refer to the (CloudWatch pricing)[https://aws.amazon.com/cloudwatch/pricing/] page.

Setup
See Zabbix template operation for basic instructions.
The template get AWS EC2 and attached AWS EBS volumes metrics and uses the script item to make HTTP requests to the CloudWatch API.
Before using template, you need to create an IAM policy for the Zabbix role in your AWS account with the necessary permissions.
Add the following required permissions to your Zabbix IAM policy in order to collect Amazon EC2 metrics.
{
"Version":"2012-10-17",

{
"Action":[
"cloudwatch:Describe*",
"cloudwatch:Get*",

"ec2:Describe*"
],
"Effect":"Allow",
"Resource":"*"
}
]
}

AWS EC2 | AWS EC2: Credit CPU: Balance | The number of earned CPU credits that an instance has accrued since it was launched or started. For T2 Standard, the CPUCreditBalance also includes the number of launch credits that have been accrued. Credits are accrued in the credit balance after they are earned, and removed from the credit balance when they are spent. The credit balance has a maximum limit, determined by the instance size. After the limit is reached, any new credits that are earned are discarded. For T2 Standard, launch credits do not count towards the limit. The credits in the CPUCreditBalance are available for the instance to spend to burst beyond its baseline CPU utilization. When an instance is running, credits in the CPUCreditBalance do not expire. When a T3 or T3a instance stops, the CPUCreditBalance value persists for seven days. Thereafter, all accrued credits are lost. When a T2 instance stops, the CPUCreditBalance value does not persist, and all accrued credits are lost. |
DEPENDENT | aws.ec2.cpu.credit_balance Preprocessing: - JSONPATH: ⛔️ON_FAIL: |
AWS EC2 | AWS EC2: Credit CPU: Usage | The number of CPU credits spent by the instance for CPU utilization. One CPU credit equals one vCPU running at 100% utilization for one minute or an equivalent combination of vCPUs, utilization, and time (for example, one vCPU running at 50% utilization for two minutes or two vCPUs running at 25% utilization for two minutes). |

Spent surplus credits are charged when any of the following occurs: - The spent surplus credits exceed the maximum number of credits that the instance can earn in a 24-hour period. Spent surplus credits above the maximum are charged at the end of the hour; - The instance is stopped or terminated; - The instance is switched from unlimited to standard. |
