Monitoring

Monitoring IT components, servers and applications using Zabbix

Monitoring
Zabbix server	Zabbix server setup - requirements
	Zabbix server setup - zabbix installation
	Zabbix server configuration - first run
	Zabbix server configuration - core setup
	Zabbix server configuration - create hosts group
	Zabbix server template management = create and manage template
	Zabbix server create new application, items, triggers and actions
	Zabbix server - add items to an application
	Zabbix server hosts management
	Zabbix server - play sound on alert
	Zabbix server dashboard
Client side	Zabbix agent setup - Recommended!
	SNMP client - Old fashion monitoring, but still effective

You can also use 3rd parties dashboard on the server side using DASHING.

Zabbix modern dashboard using DASHING

Note:

I'm using Zabbix v2.2. All the following information are just a practical summary of the Zabbix official documentation applied to my use-case.

Log aggregation

Monitor applications behavior using ELK.

Unlike Zabbix, this part is not about monitoring the environment but the actual applications behavior. To monitor applications results you can rely on logs files. ELK (Elastic search, Logstash, Kibana) is a wonderful stack to monitor that. See: http://www.elasticsearch.org/

• ELK installation: http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/setup.html

Step	Application
1		ElasticSearch
2		Kibana setup
3		Logstash
4		Kibana configuration
