Zabbix+Grafana tips

Ambarishrh

Thanks @Lakshmana for the links. I installed grafana, and downloaded the latest plugin, copied to the datasource folder. I could see zabbix on the drop down, configured as per the doc but i couldn't get the zabbox servers on the dashboard. Seems like I am missing something.

Finally, configured Zabbix and grafana!

We use Zabbix but at the moment only for a "is it up" monitor

There is so much that you can do with Zabbix. Very powerful platform.

To send email notifications, i used the script from https://gist.github.com/superdaigo/3754055

Now i would like to setup dashboards in grafana that looks something like the below gif but couldn't figure out, how to get those blocks which says the uptime, memory status rather than the graphs!

https://share.zabbix.com/ A great site for Zabbix templates and modules

I am surprised to see the amount of customisations/templates created by the community for Zabbix. This one is huge! https://github.com/zabbix/zabbix-community-repos
