no alert when zabbix proxy is offline

[Lewis Wiltshire]

Hi all,

I am using Zabbix 6.4.16 and have setup 29 zabbix proxies in active mode.

I am facing a problem that when my zabbix proxy is offline. And this is an issue ask then I do not know when a site is offline without checking when the proxy last checked in Administration > Proxies and looking in that section

I want it so when a proxy is not reachable to more that 10mins it adds it and its hosts connected to the problems page

It is possible to make a call to the Zabbix API and list all offline proxy

I will make the code for you and show you how to use it, I used python.

from zabbix_api import ZabbixAPI
zapi = ZabbixAPI(server="http://<ip>/api_jsonrpc.php")
zapi.login("login", "senha")
host_get = zapi.proxy.get({
"filter": {
"state": 1
},
"output": ["name"]
})

print(host_get)


This will show the name of the proxy that has state 1, which means offline.

Create this script on the server in /externalscripts, and make zabbix run it, it will show the offline proxies, just create a trigger if it brings results.

change <ip> - to your zabbix ip
change login - via the login of a user with permissions
change password - to password for the user with permissions

Hello,

Sorry its been a while, How do I make the zabbix run the script?

Not sure if I fully understood the problem but Zabbix server monitors proxy health automatically. No additional configuration required.
