Configure the email sending Method for zabbix

ZabbixConfigurationEmailThe sending method is to avoid measures that are not around when the alarm is triggered!

Zabbix Installation Platform: ubuntu

Step 1:

Run the following command to install sendmail. (You can also install the mail server when installing ubuntu. I am using the command to install sendmail)

Sudo apt-get install sendmail

Step 2:

If an associated package is prompted during the mail test, follow the prompts to install the package. At this time, you will see some help prompts on the screen. You can use the following command to send a simple mail

Mail recipient address press ENTER

Enter the title and press ENTER

Press ENTER

Ctrl + d

Step 3: Configure zabbix

Administrator-> Media Type-> Create Media Type

Note the following points:

SMTP Server: Your company's email Server (for example, mail.china.com)

SMTP helo: email server domain (for example, china.com)

SMTP email: XXX@china.com (Note: XXX custom)

Step 4: zabbix create a user, add media-type email, enter the email address you want to send to your company (such as: zs@china.com)

Step 5: Create an Action (see the official zabbix API for details)

Step 6: Create a Trigger (same as above)

If a trigger is triggered, Action sends an alarm to the email address of the zabbix user you specified.

Install the above six steps, and you will be able to set up zabbix email sending!
