    Monitor 4 servers in one graph

    Hey. I am new to Zabbix, and just got into using it. So far I am loving it. It is great for monitoring my servers etc.

    I have a few servers I want to connect to my Zabbix admin panel, and monitor the network bandwidth of them all.

    However, I would like to add them all be monitored in the same graph, under the same IP Address.

    Here is an example of what I am talking about:
    *removed

    I hope someone knows the answer to this, and would like to help me out

    Kind regards,
    Alcheemy

    Yes, you can do that.

    Go to Configuration --> Graphs and create a graph.
    When you go to add a single item, at the top right is a dropdown box of what host you want to pick from. Add 4 items from 4 separate hosts using that method if you like

    An alternative method would be to create a screen through Configuration --> Screens. Make a screen 2 x 2 and then edit the screen. In each cell, put the existing graph that each server already has. (Should be there from the discovery process)

      Thank you for the reply. I am having some trouble with finding "Create a graph" under configuration. Are you sure its there?

        There is no "configuration - graph". You have to use "configuration - hosts" and then "graphs". When defining a graph there, you can select items from different hosts.

        Does not make much sense at all indeed (selecting one host to see graphs of another host).

              FYI - by default you can collect information only about Inbound and Outbound traffic on interfaces.

              If you want to collect both traffic in one item you have to create that Total Item manually and use the special type: Calculated Items

              Formula can looks like that:
              Code:
              last(net.if.in[em1])+last(net.if.out[em1])
              When you create four Total Items it will be just peace of cake to create one graph,contains all four Total Items, under any Host configuration.

              Questions?
