Hi,
I need to extend the front end of Zabbix to be able to call a simple input form (php & html) which gathers username, url and a couple of other parameters from a user before executing a remote SSH call to one of the servers in our estate and passing over the parameters in the call.
We looked at using standard script function but it has no means of dynamically gathering required parameters from the user before running. The standard approach requires everything to be hard coded which doesnt suit our needs.
It looks like the Module extension approach allows us to integrate simple UI changes so we took the example from the Zabbix Blog and tried to update it to call our simple php-html screen. The HostTree example presents a new page on the right side of the menu tree like another Zabbix page.
So we are trying to make our simple form page appear on that right hand side. We can see that the screen gets called but it never appears in the browser on the right hand side like hosttree does.
Has anybody resolved this sort of issue in the past or could provide any pointers to how it could be done including alternatives if there's a better way ? Currently running latest Zab version.
Thanks,
Paul
