Need help about PROXY

[sherman wu]

Hi:
I'm newer about ZABBIX, I want to know how to establish a distributed ZABBIX with PROXY.
1. Does every PROXY need local database ?
2. If PROXY need a local database, when I use ORACLE as Server's database, can I use MySQL as local database ?
3. Which application should run on PROXY, zabbix_proxy and zabbix_server ?

Thanks.

Thank you !

If I use ORACLE as server's database and MySQL as proxy's local database,
Which database option I should use while configurate proxy from source, --with-oracle or --with-mysql ?

mysql, because that's what proxy will support
