Study Notes
Zabbix High Availability (HA) Configuration and Management
- Zabbix HA supports automatic failover with nodes reporting status every 5 seconds
- The standby node takes over when the active node shuts down or becomes unreachable
- Runtime commands can adjust cluster parameters, such as failover delay and removing nodes
- Zabbix can be set up in HA mode by starting Zabbix server on all nodes and configuring network devices
- Practical setup involves defining HANodeName and NodeAddress, using Podman container engine, and managing the HA cluster
- Zabbix proxies collect monitoring data on behalf of Zabbix server and preprocess data if required
- Proxies receive monitoring configuration from Zabbix server and send collected data to the server
- Zabbix proxies are a reliable way to monitor distributed IT infrastructure, running custom scripts and offloading server resources
- Zabbix frontend centrally manages all proxies, controlling monitoring configuration and supporting various OS platforms and DB engines
- Proxies use a database as a buffer for communication problems, with options to save data for up to 30 days
- Zabbix supports different database engines on the server and proxies, with options to store data locally even after syncing with the server
- Zabbix documentation and certification information is provided, with the latest version being 6.0 Certified Professional Day 1 © 2023 by Zabbix. All rights reserved
