Last weekend Zabbix team went to one of the animal welfare charities who are looking after abandoned dogs and cats, PatversmeLv in Riga, Latvia. The charity is accepting any help from people, so we decided to give it a maximum.
Our day began with choosing the right animal food and it was quite hard to be honest, because we wanted to bring as much as possible, but also wanted it to be tasty for them. After an hour of choosing we finally got what we wanted and went to the charity shelter.

While it is possible to monitor various aspects of virtual environments with current versions of Zabbix, it does require some time to set it all up and isn’t as integrated as it could be.
A more integrated experience for virtual environment monitoring is currently being considered for development. It might cover VMware, Xen, KVM (and possibly other environments), and include easy-to-set-up monitoring of both hypervisor and guest virtual machine statistics.
