Using Zabbix to capture enterprise script failures

[NellyRic]

Hi all,

I'm looking to start using Zabbix to capture any script failure across a mid size organisation.
I understand that a good way to config Zabbix to do this is to set up a global trigger? Can I use a script wrapper to point return codes at the Zabbix server?

Any help would be very much appreciated.

If you don't have a zabbix agent running than a zabbix-sender could be an option. Make sure your script have a try catch statement and handle the catch towards zabbix-sender. You need to have some sort of output which needs to be send to zabbix

First thing would be to read some docs and familiarize yourself with concept of how Zabbix works. what are hosts and items and how they can obtain values, different item types etc.
Blabbering something about "global triggers" is just nonsense...
