Zabbix 2013 | 13 Host Server or a network device having IP or DNS name Any application Any smart equipment

Slide 14

Zabbix 2013 | 14 Item Sources of Information Zabbix Agent Server polls Zabbix Agent (Active) Processed by Zabbix agent Simple check Executed by Zabbix server SNMP agent All SNMP versions are supported Trapper Used with Zabbix sender Log files Internal Zabbix health Aggregate Average/min/max for host group External check script[parameters] SSH Password and key authentication supported Telnet Calculated From existing data

Slide 15

Zabbix 2013 | 15 Trigger Logical expression that can describe threshold or complex problem condition 6 severity levels may be assigned to a Trigger visual representation - different colors for different severities audio in global alarms - different audio for different severities user media - different media (notification channel) for different severities limiting actions by conditions against trigger severities

Slide 16

Zabbix 2013 | 16 Trigger Expressions Syntax {host:key.function(param)}=0 {zabbix:system.cpu.load.avg(600)}>5 Operators -, +, /, *,, =, #, |, and Expression Constructor makes it easier to build complex expressions Functions min, max, avg, last, diff, count, delta, time, etc Not limited to single item or host {host1:item1}=1 and {host2:item2}>3 | {host3:item3}

Zabbix 2013 | 18 Trigger Hysteresis Task : Average server room temperature is 12-14C. Alarm if temperature exceeds 20C and release alarm only if temperature goes below 15C. ({TRIGGER.VALUE}=0 and {server:temp.last(0)}>20) | ({TRIGGER.VALUE}=1 and {server:temp.last(0)}>15)

Slide 19

Zabbix 2013 | 19 Relative Trigger Allows to compare current result with some result in the past Example {server:system.cpu.load.avg(1h)} / {server:system.cpu.load.avg(1h, 1d)}>2 Task : Compare average load on system CPU for 1 hour today with average load for the same period yesterday and notify if it is more than 2 times larger
