Create clean multipage dashboards, run them as slideshows, share dashboards with specific users, and stay in control of your monitoring data.
Previously, Zabbix had two different functionalities – Screens and Dashboards. With Zabbix 5.4 Screens have been completely replaced by Dashboards.
In Zabbix 5.4, Dashboards support multiple new functionalities:
- No need to switch between screens and dashboards – now everything is in the same place
- Dashboards now support multiple pages and slideshows
- All template-level screens have been converted to template dashboards
Check out the video to learn how to create a multipage Dashboard
How to configure a multi-page dashboard:
- Open a dashboard and press the Edit dashboard button
- Click on the arrow next to the Add button and select Add page
- Enter a name for the new page, for example, MySQL servers
- Click on an empty space to add a widget
- Select the first Dashboard page
- Press the three dots in any widget’s corner, then select Copy
- Select the second Dashboard page
- Click on an empty space and select Paste widget
- Press the three dots next to the page name and select Properties.
- Enter a new page name and press Apply
- Open the page properties menu and set the Page display period
- Press the gear icon in the top right corner
- Set the Default page display period
- Press Apply and the slideshow should start automatically
- Use the Stop slideshow button to stop a slideshow
Tips and best practices:
- You can run a slideshow if a Dashboard contains two or more pages
- It is possible to copy a whole Dashboard page
- Template level dashboards are generated for a host, once the template is linked to the host
- Host dashboard widgets can be copied to other host dashboards of the same template
great tip, thank you!
Hi Marina,
We’re Utilizing Zabbix as a POC Tool To Monitor Our Internal Resources in our Data Centres That Includes Compute Server(HPE iLO, Dell iDRAC, Cisco CIMC & Super Micro IPMI), Cisco 9K,5K & 2K Series Switches, Firtigate Firewalls etc and All the OS Running in the Servers As Well. But We’ve a Doubt Related Zabbix Dashboard where I’ve Created Multiple Pages and When a Scheduled Report is Created for the Dash Board Only The First Page in the Dashboard is Received as PDF over Mail. Is there a Any Workaround to Get that Fixed.
