page_description: Plugin configuration instructions for Grafana-Zabbix.

|
|
|
# Configuration
|
|
|
|
## Enable plugin
|
|
Go to the plugins in Grafana side panel, select _Apps_ tab, then select _Zabbix_, open _Config_
|
|
tab and enable plugin.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Configure Zabbix data source
|
|
After enabling plugin you can add Zabbix data source.
|
|
|
|
To add new Zabbix data source open _Data Sources_ in side panel, click _Add data source_ and
|
|
select _Zabbix_ from dropdown list.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Http settings
|
|
|
|
- **Url**: set Zabbix API url (full path with `api_jsonrpc.php`).
|
|
- **Access**: can be either _proxy_ or _direct_.
|
|
- **Http Auth**: configure if you use proxy authentication.
|
|
- **Basic Auth**:
|
|
- **With Credentials**:
|
|
|
|
### Zabbix API details
|
|
|
|
- **User** and **Password**: setup login for access to Zabbix API. Also check user's permissions
|
|
in Zabbix if you can't get any groups and hosts in Grafana.
|
|
- **Trends**: enable if you use Zabbix 3.x or patch for trends
|
|
support in Zabbix 2.x ([ZBXNEXT-1193](https://support.zabbix.com/browse/ZBXNEXT-1193)). This option
|
|
strictly recommended for displaying long time periods (more than few days, depending of your item's
|
|
updating interval in Zabbix) because few days of item history contains tons of points. Using trends
|
|
will increase Grafana performance.
|
|
- **Use trends from**: time after which trends will be used. Default is **7d** (7 days).
|
|
You can set the time in Grafana format. Valid time specificators are:
|
|
- **h** - hours
|
|
- **d** - days
|
|
- **M** - months
|
|
- **Cache update interval**: plugin caches some api requests for increasing performance. Set this
|
|
value to desired cache lifetime (this option affect data like items list).
|
|
|
|
Then click _Add_ - datasource will be added and you can check connection using
|
|
_Test Connection_ button. This feature can help to find some mistakes like invalid user name
|
|
or password, wrong api url.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Import example dashboards
|
|
You can import dashboard examples from _Dashboards_ tab in plugin config.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Note about Zabbix 2.2 or less
|
|
Zabbix API (api_jsonrpc.php) before zabbix 2.4 don't allow cross-domain requests (CORS). And you
|
|
can get HTTP error 412 (Precondition Failed).
|
|
To fix it add this code to api_jsonrpc.php immediately after the copyright:
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *');
|
|
header('Access-Control-Allow-Headers: Content-Type');
|
|
header('Access-Control-Allow-Methods: POST');
|
|
header('Access-Control-Max-Age: 1000');
|
|
|
|
if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] === 'OPTIONS') {
|
|
return;
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
before
|
|
|
|
```php
|
|
require_once dirname(__FILE__).'/include/func.inc.php';
|
|
require_once dirname(__FILE__).'/include/classes/core/CHttpRequest.php';
|
|
```
|
|

|
## Note about Browser Cache
|
|
After updating plugin, clear browser cache and reload application page. See details
|
|
for [Chrome](https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/95582),
|
|
[Firefox](https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-clear-firefox-cache). You need to clear cache
|
|
only, not cookies, history and other data.
