Zabbix using Docker - Zabbix server: Utilization of icmp pinger processes over 75%

[byronious99]

I am new to Zabbix and a bit new to Docker. I came across a specific use case where I feel right now Zabbix would fit and could potentially move into more later so I thought I'd give it a try. I'm running the latest container images and right now I have ~230 hosts that I need to monitor by ping only. Things seem to be working but ever since using discovery and adding the hosts to the ICMP Ping template the "Zabbix server: Utilization of icmp pinger processes over 75%" problem has existed.

I've found the following: https://www.zabbix.com/forum/zabbix-...e-than-75-busy

What I've not been able to find is where to make this change within a Docker setup. Any help in how to change this would be greatly appreciated.

What did you use and how did you build that environment? If it is an official container, I think you should set the value to ZBX_STARTPINGERS in the configuration file. Check the readme, wiki, and other documentation for the container you're using.

That did it, set the environment variable on the container and issue cleared up. Thank you for your help!
