    Zabbix Receiving External Events

    Looking for a way to receive external event notifications from other systems. We are considering moving away from nagios into a zabbix system. The issue is that we have nagios deployed everywhere and we would like to send the alerts from the nagios system into the centralized zabbix server. Using the zabbix sender on the nagios servers seems like a good idea, but what key do you reference when sending multiple alerts. For example:

    Nagios Alert 1, alert.key, "message test" date/time etc
    Nagios Alert 2, alert.key. "message text 2" date/time etc

    Will the alert.key value not be replaced by the alert 2 message? This wont work as the events will be unique coming into the server.

    Thanks!
