About communication between zabbix proxy and zabbix servers
I have a hypothetical scenario:
1 zabbix proxy inside a site (site1) with 120 clients
1 zabbix server inside other site ( site2 )
1 zabbix server inside cloud enviroment (cloud)

the zabbix proxy send information simultaneously to server in site2 and server in the cloud.

let's say that one day I lost internet in site2 and zabbix server become unreacheable for 36 hours.
The zabbix server on cloud still working and reciving informações from proxy.
after 36 hours of downtime the zabbix server on site2 become avaliable again.
the proxy server will (re)send all lost data in this 36 hours?

I read this article https://www.zabbix.com/documentation...pgrade/sources
But this article does not predict the secondary server.
when one server still receiving information, the secondary server will receive the information that was lost in downtime?

look for ProxyOfflineBuffer

https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/4.0/manual/appendix/config/zabbix_proxy

Proxy will keep data for N hours in case of no connectivity with Zabbix server. Older data will be lost.

thank you for your answer.
I think this is the correct answer.


I will test if everything works correctly and report here after that.
thank you, again.

Maybe the solution you describe is better, but you can also create an proxy on the cloud, other in site 2 and have the agent on site 1 to send info for both...

thank you for your answer.
I will test first this parameters ( ProxyLocalBuffer, ProxyOfflineBuffer)
and if it fail, I will try your abordage
