Failed to connect to DB2 through zabbix web gui

[iskioupi]

Hello all,

we would like your help on the following issue.

Our main goal is to monitoring Db2 databases through zabbix. The zabbix is installled on RedHat8.

We have already perform the following steps.

1) Install unixodbc
2) Install IBM Data Server Client
3) Catalog the database
4) Configure odbc.ini, odbcinst.ini

We can connect through Db2 database from:

db2 cli
isql (for all users).

Nevertheless, we have not managed to connect without give the password.

After our successfully connection, we have try the following steps on zabbix gui.

1) Create a new template
2) Create a new item.



When we test the Item we are receiving the following error.


Can you help us/guide us please?

Thank you in advance,
Katerina Iskioupi

Hello,

I think you have to edit the configuration file for db2 cli, search the file db2dsdriver.cfg and set the follow parameters: dns alias, name (DB), host and port.
Other solution could be check if user zabbix have privileges to read configuration files.
