    Monitoring the status of a group of servers

    I am new to Zabbix and am trying to monitor a group of servers that are balanced behind F5. I have 5 servers that are balanced behind the F5 and we want to be notified if 3 or more are down but not if only one or two are unavailable. How would I set this up in Zabbix?

    We are transitioning from Traverse Monitoring system to Zabbix and need to set up monitoring for a group of servers. Since these servers are redundant / clustered it is not a high priority of one or two of the servers are unavailable and we only need to be alerted (High priority) of more than two of the servers become unresponsive to the up tests.
    Thanks in advance for any help you can provide as I'm not finding anything about this type of testing available in Zabbix.

      Since you're new to Zabbix, I recommend you start with the Zabbix 6.0 Long Term Support (LTS) release, currently version 6.0.5. Version 6, being a major feature release added a lot of stuff, including more advanced service monitoring for a heavily HA environment.
