<p dir="ltr">How do you configure zabbix outside its GUI? As far as I saw so far it's not possible so you have to point and click your way through its gui.<br>
Most of what I wrote against nagios is relevant to Zabbix as well - central server etc.</p>

- you can set the monitoring interval for each item (from 1s -> days)<br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif">- samples are stored in the DB, and graphs are plotted only when you need them<br>

I'm looking for a single system that can track all of a remote server's health and performance status, and which stores a detailed every-few-seconds history. So far, I haven't found one comprehensive system that does it all; also, triggering alarms in "bad" situations (such as no disk space, etc). Things I'm interested in (in parentheses - how I track them at the moment. Note shinken is a nagios-compatible thing).<br>
<br>
Free disk space (shinken)<br>
Server load (shinken)<br>
Debian package and security updates (shinken)<br>
NTP drift (shinken)<br>
Service ping/reply time (shinken)<br>
Upload/download rates per interface (mrtg)<br>
Temperatures (sensord, hddtemp)<br>
Security logs, warning and alerts e.g. fail2ban, auth.log (rsync of log files)<br>
<br>
I have a few tens of servers to monitor, which I would like to do with one software and one console. Those servers are not all physically on the same network, nor do they have a VPN (so, no UDP) but tcp and ssh are mostly reliable even though they are low bandwidth.<br>
<br>
Please note that shinken (much like nagios) doesn't really give a good visible history of things it measures - only alerts; Also, it can't really sample things every few seconds - the lowest reasonable update interval (given shinken's architecture) is ~5 minutes for the things it measures above.<br>
<br>
Any recommendations?<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance,<br>
Ori<br>
