Hi,

Please show us the output of your script, with the command line you used, and put a screenshot of the host's configuration you're trying to put in maintenance mode

Thanks for you replay .
If i take the example of this script http://zabbix.org/wiki/Perl_script_t...ve_Maintenance

i have modify this lines
my $url = "http://ip/zabbix/api_jsonrpc.php"; # change <zabbix server> to your zabbix server
my $apiuser="Admin"; # API User's Username
my $apipassword="zabbix"; # API User's password

Then i have test the script by running list this on console :
# ./za1.pl -s jenkins -d 3600 -n backup
WARNING - jenkins not found in maintenance for Zabbix.

Where jenkins is my host name which is present in zabbix GUI .

I have the same problem

Any chance you solved it by now?

[Ranveer]

NO !!!!
I am looking a script which can enable or disable group of server maintenance .

Please advice me

[Bercko21]

I'll try to debug it, I'll post here the solution if I'll manage.

[Bercko21]

Well, I can tell the script is not working since the method host.getobjects has been deprecated....
Since I'm not a Perl programmer, I'm not sure I'll actually solve it...
I'm trying to get some help from someone else.

[Ranveer]

Do you have any other script which can perform same task

I just need a script which can remotely execute and enable and disable group of server in maintenance with no data collection .

[Bercko21]

That's exactly what I need too...
So far I don't think I'll manage to fix the Perl script, but I took the curl part from it and I'm trying to write a bash script to do it.
I'll update as soon as I'll get somewhere

Finally!

After a long long time, I've managed to do it using Zabbix-CLI, here are the instructions:

Install Zabbix-CLI:
1. wget https://github.com/usit-gd/zabbix-cl....7.0-1_all.deb
2. apt-get install python-requests python-ipaddr
3. dpkg -i zabbix-cli_1.7.0-1_all.deb

Configure Zabbix-CLI with the Zabbix API URL:
1. zabbix-cli-init --zabbix-url http://<server ip>/zabbix/api_jsonrpc.php

The scripts:
1. add_maintenance.sh
#!/bin/bash
export ZABBIX_USERNAME=<zabbix user>
export ZABBIX_PASSWORD=<zabbix password>
zabbix-cli -C "create_maintenance_definition 'Name-$1' 'Description' '$1' '1 hour' '1'"

2. remove_maintenance.sh
#!/bin/bash
export ZABBIX_USERNAME=<zabbix user>
export ZABBIX_PASSWORD=<zabbix password>
mid=$(zabbix-cli -C "show_maintenance_definitions '*' '*' '$1'" | tail -n 3 | head -n 1 | awk '{print $2}')
zabbix-cli -C "remove_maintenance_definition '$mid'"

Examples:
1. ./add_maintenance.sh pc-name-01
2. ./remove_maintenance.sh pc-name-01

Thats about it for now
