More than 1 Server - Zabbix Agent

[itnoob123]

Hello guys,

do I need more than one Zabbix Agent to monitor multiple Hosts. I installed Zabbix Agent to every Linux Server I use as a Service on my Zabbix Server, is this the way to monitor my Services and Network, or would I have a Chance to monitor the Services with the Zabbix Agent only beeing on the IP of the Zabbix Server?
Also, can I get a connection to the Server from my Service Linux Server, with the Server being on localhost, the DB schema is also configurated on the localhost.
On my other Linux Server which I use as a Service, i get the errorlog [[127.0.0.1]] connection refused to [[127.0.0.1:10050]], I tested this with the firewall being disabled and I don't know anymore, if I can connect to the zabbix server from another host since its on a linux server localhost.


I hope u guys can help me




Your sincerely

If you want to monitor the detailed status of each server, you should install Zabbix agent on each server.
Configure the Zabbix agent installed on each server. The minimum settings required are Server, ServerActive, and Hostname. For example, if the IP address of the Zabbix server is 192.168.1.1 and the host name of the host to be monitored is "linux1", perform the following settings.

Server=192.168.1.1
ServerActive=192.168.1.1
Hostname=linux1
