Monitor SMTP response time

[assie]

Hi all,

Iv used the web application thing with the scenarios to monitor the response times
for HTTP. Now I want to do the same thing with SMTP. To connect to port 25
and report back how long it took, and then graph it.

Can this be done within Zabbix?

Thanks

Yes it can. However you will need to write an external script to do it.

Hat tip to Jnx for pointing this out out in the IRC channel.

You might also look into the item smpt_perf

http://www.zabbix.com/documentation/...config/items?s[]=smtp_perf

It's about 3/4 the way down the page.

smtp_perf sounds good, but is that windows?

I tried to click the link but it gives me a permission denied..

Try this one simple checks

Look for smtp_perf

Its not windows, its done from the zabbix server. Don't get mislead by the name perf
