Proxmox VE / Node

[ISSchuster]

Hello,


I just started with zabbix - looks great but I have a problem.

When using the Proxmox VE via HTTP template it discovers and adds all Nodes from the Cluster. Thats good - and bad ;-)

If this one host goes down the complete cluster monitoring goes down because the API is no longer reachable.

If I add a second node I get every message twice.

Can I somehow exclude the other nodes - so that one host only receives data for itself? And not for the other nodes?

Proxmox Node 1 => only data for Node 1
Proxmox Node 2 => only data for Node 2

It should be really simple to filter the proxmox API output and only use data for a specific node....

Any ideas?


Thanks, Stefan

Problem solved - I think.

Added a filter to the Discovery Rules...

Until now it's working as expected.

Stefan, tell me please, how you solved this problem?

Can you add the filter here to other people that have or will have same problem?

Hi,

New to Zabbix and tried this template out. Not really sure how to set this up the best way for my nodes. Do I even need an agent installed on the actual node?
Since it discovers and collects data for all nodes in a cluster by REST calls from Zabbix server I would more like to have a virtual cluster host (that gets it all) rather then a host for every node.

Any best practice with this template? Should I setup discovery filters and have a host/node with API calls going to the specific node or should I setup more like a VIP that picks whatever node
is working and report back to a virtual cluster host.
