    Dynamic Hosts / Supercomputing

    I want to use ZBX to graph job statistics for a Supercomputer that we have. The machine has 500 nodes and job id's are randomly generated. Each job has statistics that we'd like to use ZBX to store and graph on later.

    Since we don't have the manpower to create a host for each job id, and have each statistic be an item under that host, I wanted to know if we could use zabbix_sender to automagically create a host? The template for the dynamically generated host would contain the items needed.

    Basically job id 29572 runs and we have compute statistics about 29572.

    I'd like to run:
    zabbix_sender -s 29572 -k cpu_time 25
    etc..

    Any ideas?

    i'd suggest using zabbix api to create items/hosts as desired and then pushing data with sender. latest 1.8 version strongly suggested
