Hi Folks,
I have 2 active zabbix servers at different sites passively monitoring the same devices and thought it would be great for zabbix to monitor each others internals. I created a zabbix template with all the internals & applied them to both servers.
ie: HostB: zabbix[queue], HostB zabbix[queue] etc...
Well, I didn't think much of it, until I tried to create a graph to overlay the polling queues of the different servers to compare performance.
to my dissapointment both HostA & HostB had exactly the same graph.
Well how can this be? - Turns out that regardless of which server you assign a zabbix internal to, it seems to not care, and just poll the local zabbix server.

Can you expose these zabbix internal measurements so that I can monitor my primary zabbix server with my redundant zabbix server & vice versa?
Is there any way to expose these statistics publicly (user parameters etc...?)
Thanks!
(Great stuff by the way coming along nicely!)
