In today’s class let’s talk about where the disk space goes. Which items and hosts objects consume the disk space the most.
Recently, Whatsapp pushed their new privacy policy where they announced to share more data with Facebook, causing an exodus to other platforms, where Signal is one of the more popular ones, among Telegram. Both are great alternatives, but I prefer Signal due to the open-source part, end to end encryption, and last but not least: their business model (living on donations instead of selling your data).
In this lab, let’s practice to create an on-screen report of the data (most recent metrics) which is very important for us.
This post represents one technique how to advance from functionality under:
“Monitoring” => “Overview”.
In this lab, we will list all devices which are not reachable by a monitoring tool. This is good when we want to improve the overall monitoring experience and decrease the size queue (metrics which has not been arrived at the instance).
Zabbix 5.2 supports two important protocols used in the world of the Internet of Things — MQTT and Modbus. Now we can benefit from the newest Zabbix features and integrate Zabbix network monitoring in the world of IoT.
Zabbix recently released the new 5.2 version with awesome new features overviewed in the video, such as hashicorp vault, IoT monitoring, improved performance, granular permission system, and much more. The upgrade to the latest Zabbix 5.2 is fast and easy.
If you are tired of administering the infrastructure on your own and would prefer to gain time to focus on real monitoring activities rather than costly platform upgrades, you can easily lift and shift your MySQL-based Zabbix installation stack to Oracle Cloud.
It is not a secret that Zabbix maintains package repositories for multiple GNU/Linux distributions to make installing the software and staying up to date with the latest releases as easy as possible. To make use of the official Zabbix packages one should follow the instructions on https://www.zabbix.com/download. In this article, we would like to talk about some common points of confusion that people have when using Zabbix packages.
Today we are talking about a use case when it’s impossible to find a proper way to write a recovery expression for the Zabbix trigger. In other words, we know how to identify problems. But there is no good way to detect when the problem is gone.
In this lab we will use a bash environment and utilities ‘curl’ and ‘jq’ to perform Zabbix API calls, do some scripting.
