Plugins

Templates

New templates

A new template is available:

• YugabyteDB by HTTP, which includes the YugabyteDB Cluster by HTTP template for monitoring each YugabyteDB cluster.

You can get this template:

• In Configuration → Templates in new installations;
• When upgrading from previous versions, the latest templates can be downloaded from the Zabbix Git repository and manually imported into Zabbix in the Configuration → Templates section. If a template with the same name already exists, check the Delete missing option before importing to achieve a clean import. This way the items that have been excluded from the updated template will be removed (note that history of the deleted items will be lost).

Platforms

Zabbix agent 2 support on Windows

To prevent critical security vulnerabilities, the minimum Windows version for Zabbix agent 2 has been raised to Windows 10/Windows Server 2016. See note under Supported platforms for more information.
