Zabbix - Ansible Role

This role deploys, configures and updates Zabbix. You can deploy test instance using Vagrantfile attached to the role.

vagrant up ansible-playbook -b Playbooks/zabbix.yml

Then you can access Zabbix from your computer on http://192.168.33.27:8080

The default login credentials for Zabbix are:

• Username: Admin
• Password: zabbix

⚠️ If mariadb is deployed on a different server than zabbix, then you have to do mysql> set global log_bin_trust_function_creators = 1; on your mariadb server, then deploy this role, and set it back with mysql> set global log_bin_trust_function_creators = 0;

Zabbix-agent

• zabbix-agent service needs to be deployed to the container you want to monitor (set zabbix_agent: 'true' when you run the role) in order to be catched by zabbix-server.
• This role allows you to add your own scripts. See #Zabbix Scripts section in defaults/main.yml.

TODO

• When a script needs for example psql for lufi script, then it won't work if the needed package (example postgresql-client) is not installed on the container that zabbix-agent runs on. We could add a task in install_agent that installs dependencies and have zabbix_script_deps var.
• It would be nice to have userparameter_container.conf.j2 more vanilla as most of them won't work without the disroot scripts repo.
