Zabbix proxy HA

[zabcloud]

Hi, I would like to get some advice from you, I have a platform where there are two zabbix proxy servers that turn data to a zabbix server.
Basically one of the proxies should serve the production servers, and the other the test servers, this is done by configuring the agent on one or the other. My question is, can I configure the agent so that if the production servers' zabbix proxy goes down, they can automatically use the test proxy? Can the agent have two proxies configured?

Yes, you can have HA between Proxies using Proxy load balancing and high availability.
In this scenario, you would need to configure a Proxy group, and all proxies in the group should be listed in the Server parameter of the agents.

However, this is a feature that load balances your hosts between your proxies.
Since you have a production and a test Proxy, it doesn't seem like a good idea.

WIth native proxy HA you cannot define, that by default hosts should be monitored by proxy A and only in case of failure, they turn to proxy B. HA will recalculate situation, redistribute the load between A and B etc etc... In your case, you should have 2 groups, one for prod one for test. (Hope you dont use snmp... as in that case all that native proxy HA goes down the drain...:P )
