perl do "/usr/local/etc/zabbix/zabbix_trap_receiver.pl"

In zabbix Web interface:
- add host (eg TrapTests) with IP 127.0.0.1
- add SNMP interface
- create Itemwuth Type: SNMP_Trap and key:snmptrap.fallback, Type_of_info:Text

Send SNMP trap to 127.0.0.1

snmptrap -v 1 -c public 127.0.0.1 '1.2.3.4.5.6' '192.193.194.195' 6 99 '55' 1.11.12.13.14.15 s "teststring"

Zabbix upgrade to version 2 from 1.8.x with corrupted database

Problem:

ERROR 1062 (23000) at line 1068: Duplicate entry '47-17412' for key 'items_applications_1'
Failed to patch Zabbix database. Restore from backup
Press any key to continue...

Solution:
1) create database zabbix2 character set utf8;
2) install clean zabbix 1.8.5 cu UTF8 DB;
3) mysql -u root --default-character-set=utf8 -p zabbix2 < ./1815_clear_utf8.sql
4) mysql -u root --default-character-set=utf8 -p zabbix2 < ./zabbix42_only_data_cu_history_fara-app.sql
5) upgrade to 2.0: ./upgrade -u root -p zabbix2

From Official Site

./configure --enable-server --enable-agent --with-mysql --enable-ipv6 --with-net-snmp --with-libcurl --with-libxml2

To configure the sources for a Zabbix server and agent, you may run something like:

./configure --enable-server --enable-agent --with-mysql --enable-ipv6 --with-net-snmp --with-libcurl --with-jabber --enable-proxy

Zabbix General Information
Number of processed values per second
This is the average number of new values Zabbix server receives every second.
For example, if we have 3000 items for monitoring with refresh rate of 60 seconds, the number of values per second is calculated as 3000/60 = 50.
It means that 50 new values are added to Zabbix database every second.

Trends
Zabbix keeps a 1-hour max/min/avg/count set of values for each item in the table trends.
The data is used for trending and long period graphs. The one hour period can not be customised.

The Housekeeping is a task run by Zabbix which takes care of removing the unnecessary data of the history, alerts and alarms tables. Taking a look at the zabbix log, you can find out how many records are deleted from the database.
This procedure is configured by means of different parameters into the zabbix_server.conf file.

http://www.zabbix.com/documentation/1.8/manual/installation/requirements

======================================================================
Zabbix requires a database. If you are using SQLite, one will be
created automatically. Otherwise you can install one as follows (<db>
is your database engine and <db_client> is its client program):

% cd /usr/local/share/zabbix/server/create
% cat schema/<db>.sql data/data.sql data/images_<db>.sql | <db_client>

To upgrade an existing database, see the scripts in
/usr/local/share/zabbix/server/upgrades.
======================================================================
===> Correct pkg-plist sequence to create group(s) and user(s)
===> Compressing manual pages for zabbix-server-1.8.13,2

UPDATE `zabbix`.`items` SET `history` = '8', `trends` = '366';

http://www.slideshare.net/xsbr/alexei-vladishev-zabbixperformancetuning

If you have a large environment, I recommend you to disable housekeeping, the explanation in this post.

Recommendations

Consider not more than 7 days for history (3 days for medium environments)
Avoid intervals less than 60 seconds
Keep your eyes on disksize from history/trend tables

http://sysadminnotebook.blogspot.com/2011/09/packet-loss-monitoring-with-zabbix.html

UPDATE `zabbix`.`users` SET `refresh` = FLOOR(180 + (RAND() * 60)) WHERE `users`.`userid` >0;
