Hi all, I was wondering if anyone can recommend a good map/display application that works with Zabbix or can share what they are using in production? I am trying to move over from Nagios/NagioSQL/NagVis to Zabbix/?? but visualisation is letting me down. I have tried to create something in Grafana but I haven't had any success. Our use case is tv station/broadcast monitoring, so we don't really care for metrics, we only want to see absolute OK/WARNING/CRITICAL statuses.
I have tried using Triggers in Grafana, however I can't deliver what my boss has asked for.
He wants what he calls a "dark cockpit", he sent me a mock up with a page of panels that represent host groups, and when any host in the hostgroup is in a state other than OK, then the panel shows .."2 critical, 1 warning" for example. Then he wants to click on that Panel and be taken to a dashboard for that hostgroup.
The thing that kills me is that I can do this in NagVis very easily, it's just HTML and templating. But Nagios is so antiquated and adding the 100 or so network devices into Nagios is going to kill me. I was able to do it in 1 hour in Zabbix. But dashboarding it has failed, and unfortunately for my boss that's all he cares about. He doesn't want any alerting to external devices, he just wants a screen that flashes and says what's wrong, but he mostly doesn't want any text... just icons.uc browser shareit appvn
Any ideas from the community?
