I bought the book, it covers 1.8 which is different but I have been reading it anyway. I have been reading the manual on-line for 2.x, it helped a little, but there is nothing simple about way that Zabbix works. I almost doubled over with insane laughter when I read this section from the manual.
<manual>
Easy configuration
* add monitored devices as hosts
* hosts are picked up for monitoring, once in the database
* apply templates to monitored devices
</manual>
With that said, does anyone have anything to suggest that might help people grasp how to create a mail alert, how triggers work, etc? I am still reading on and get it a little more with each passing attempt. Just thought I would throw this question out there while I "twerk".

P.S. Yes, I do feel like an idiot for not being able to wrap my head around this. I do have the feeling that after a few Ah ha moments it will be crystal clear to me how it all works. Thanks in advance.
