Docker by Zabbix agent 2

Overview

The template to monitor Docker engine by Zabbix that work without any external scripts. Most of the metrics are collected in one go, thanks to Zabbix bulk data collection.

Template Docker by Zabbix agent 2 — collects metrics by polling zabbix-agent2.

Requirements

Zabbix version: 7.4 and higher.

Tested versions

This template has been tested on:

  • Docker 23.0.3

Configuration

Zabbix should be configured according to the instructions in the Templates out of the box section.

Setup

Setup and configure Zabbix agent 2 compiled with the Docker monitoring plugin. The user by which the Zabbix agent 2 is running should have access permissions to the Docker socket.

Test availability: zabbix_get -s docker-host -k docker.info
