Experience in Zabbix configuration and installation

Zabbix is a CS-structured monitoring system that has not been properly installed before: You have to review the installation several times. Currently, the configuration and installation of Zabbix are as follows:

Zabbix configuration requires web, php, mysql, gcc, and other support
Please configure it yourself
Next let's start the operation.
The operating system of the Operation example is Centos 5.2.

Cd zabbix-1.6.2
./Configure-prefix =/usr/local/zabbix // specify the installation directory
-Enable-server \ // install the server, which is not required by the monitored Node
-Enable-agent \ // install the agent
-With-mysql \ // a directory must be specified for mysql support
-With-net-snmp // you need to specify a directory for snmp support.

The Zabbix configuration client only needs to be executed:
./Configure-prefix =/usr/local/zabbix-enable-agent
Make & make install

If no error is reported during Zabbix configuration and installation, click OK. Then add the corresponding Port:

Vi/etc/services
Join
Zabbix_agent 10050/tcp # zabbix agent
Zabbix_agent 10050/udp # zabbix agent
Zabbix_trapper 10051/tcp # zabbix trapper
Zabbix_trapper 10051/udp # zabbix trapper
Copy the configuration file and Service Startup Script
Cp-rf misc/conf/opt/app/zabbix/etc-R
To
Misc/init. d/
Select a STARTUP script that suits your environment, or write
Add a zabbix user
Useradd zabbix
Run the script to start zabbix_server and zabbix_agentd.

Zabbix configuration is returned to the zabbix compilation directory:
Generate the configuration file:
Mkdir/etc/zabbix
Cp misc/conf/*/etc/zabbix/
Vi frontends/php/include/db. inc. php
Change database content:
$ DB_TYPE = "MYSQL ";
$ DB_SERVER = "localhost ";
$ DB_DATABASE = "zabbix ";
$ DB_USER = "zabbix ";
$ DB_PWD = "zabbix ";
Cp-rf frontends/php/var/www/html/zabbix-R
