    Zabbix 6.0 alpha - Native high-availability and load balancing

    As I read in the roadmap, Zabbix 6 will be able to:
    - Proxies to provide automatic load balancing and HA
    - Native HA setup for Zabbix Server

    Has anyone tried this?
    Does anyone know any documentation on how to set this up?

    It's not in the latest alpha yet.

      Thanks your answer.
      Can you tell us when we will be able to try this feature around?

        Presumably, in the next alpha. In a week or two.

        This solution is just a much simpler alternative of pacemaker based HA setups. The next step is to introduce load-balancing and HA for proxies in 6.2 and then true horizontal scalability, which would require significant changes of the way how Zabbix server works. It is already in the roadmap: https://www.zabbix.com/roadmap
        "

        Source: https://support.zabbix.com/browse/ZBXNEXT-6923

        Do I see well then that the proxy HA and load-balance functions will not appear in the 6.0 LTS release?
        I didn't see proxy HA and LB functions in the 6.2 roadmap ...
        I see the entry "Proxies to provide automatic load balancing and HA" in the 6.0 LTS roadmap, but without the "Ready" or "in dev" flags. Does this mean that this item will not be included in Zabbix 6.0 LTS?

        If we’re only thinking about LTS versions, the proxy HA and LB features will only be available to us in Zabbix 7.0 LTS, right?

          Proxy load balancing is planned but is not likely to make it in 6.0. 6.2 or 6.4 is a more realistic assumption.
