# This script will partition your zabbix database to improve the efficiency.
# It will also create stored procedures to do the necessary housekeeping,
# and create a cronjob to do this on a daily basis
#
# This script inspired by the following:
#	http://zabbixzone.com/zabbix/partitioning-tables/
#
# While the basic SQL is from the above page, this script both creates the necessary 
# SQL for the desired tables, and can create new partitions as the time goes on
# assuming that the cronjob has been properly entered.
#

#
# Who to email with cron output
#
EMAIL="root@localhost"

#
# How long to keep the daily history
#
daily_history_min=30

#
# How long to keep the monthly history (months)
#
monthly_history_min=12

#
# Years to create the monthly partitions for

$0	[-h host][-u user][-p password][-d min_days][-y startyear][-n][-s][-e email_address][-b]

	-h host			database host
	-u user			db user
	-p password		user password
	-d min_days		Minimum number of days of history to keep (default: $daily_history_min)
	-m min_months		Minimum number of months to keep trends (default: $monthly_history_min)
	-y startyear		First year to set up with partitions
	-n noninteractive	Run without questions - careful, make sure you know what is going to happen. Needs my.cnf with correct permissions.
	-b backup		Create backup of DB in $DUMP_FILE before alterations (only works with non-interactive mode, -n)
	-s simulate		Create SQL file that would be executed for examination ($SQL)
	-e email		Email address to receive partition update report (default: $EMAIL)


After running this script, don't forget to disable housekeeping if
you didn't have the script disable it, and add the following cronjob

	### Option: DisableHousekeeping
	#       If set to 1, disables housekeeping.
	#
	# Mandatory: no
	# Range: 0-1
	################### Uncomment and change the following line to 1 in 
	################### Then restart the zabbix server
