Matrix or Scalar Values in Zabbix

[dagee]

Hi there,
I love zabbix, and i learn alot about scripting in the moment :-)
esp. because i write a monitoring-script for Open Xchange-Servers, which have only support for munin.

Nevermind! I WANT ZABBIX! :-)

Ok here is the Problem:
I want to visualise the Number of Sessions. The Tool of OX only gives the Number per Workers in a scalar format like [0, 0, 2, 4, 0, 6, 0]
it would be great to end up with a graph with a line per Worker.

is this clear?

I know i could get the sum and drw this, but i loose the info per Worker

does someone know how to script this properly for zabbix?

Are there Open Xchange Users here around working with a similar script for zabbix?

Of course i will give my script for all when its done :-)
Lots of variables to monitor :-)

Is the number of workers constant e.g. are there 7 workers everytime?

I would write a custom LLD rule which has to return a JSON output consisting of all workers by "ID":

{
        "data":[

        {               "{#INDEX}":"0", "{#NAME}":"Worker 1"},
        {               "{#INDEX}":"1", "{#NAME}":"Worker 2"}        ]
}

{#INDEX} is the index into your array, {#NAME} is the name you choose for your worker.

Then, create a script and hook it in via "UserParameter=" setting in zabbix_agentd.conf:

UserParameter=getOXWorkerSession[*]=yourScript $1

<yourscript> would return the n-th value of your array as given on the command line.

Finally create item prototypes with "{#INDEX}" as part of the key parameter

key: getOXWorkerSession[{#INDEX}]
