3 Global search

It is possible to search for various entities in the Zabbix frontend. Search input box is located in the upper right corner. Search can be started by pressing enter or clicking on the Search button.

If there is a host that starts with the entered string, a dropdown will appear, listing all such hosts:

Entities searched

It is possible to search for these entities and their properties:

  • Hosts
    • Host name
    • Visible name
    • IP address
    • DNS name
  • Templates
    • Name
  • Host groups
    • Name

In the search results, it is possible to collapse each individual block. Below each block the amount of entities found and displayed is shown, for example, Displaying 13 of 13 found. The amount of displayed entries in each block is limited to 100.

For all configuration entities the amount of entities found is displayed in parenthesis. If no entities of that type are found, the entry is displayed without a link.

Enabled hosts are displayed in blue, disabled hosts in red. If the host name of a host/template matches the query string and is different from the visible name, it is displayed below the visible name in parentheses.

For entities found the following links are available:
