Intro

zabbix_install.sh is a bash script designed to quickly install the docker version of Zabbix (https://www.zabbix.com) for testing and/or small scale production purposes.

Usage

The script is menu based and will install and configure Docker as a swarm (so we can use secrets), set up the required volume directories and environment files for Zabbix containers and start the containers as a stack.

Here are the script installation tasks:

• Install Docker
• Setup Grafana
• Setup Zabbix
• Start Zabbix Stack

The following docker images are deployed via the included docker-compose.yml:

• Grafana-oss
• MariaDB-Server
• Zabbix-Agent
• Zabbix-Java-Gateway
• Zabbix-Server
• Zabbix-Web-Nginx-MySQL

Compatibility

This script was developed and tested on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS.

Installation

You can download zabbix_install.sh by cloning this git repository:

git clone https://github.com/sonusboom/zabbix_installer.git

To Run:

chmod +x zabbix_install.sh`
sudo ./zabbix_install.sh

Important Notice

After you have installed Zabbix, log onto the server and do the following:

1. Click on "Configuration" and then "Hosts"
2. Click on "Zabbix server" and make the following change on "Interfaces"
   • DNS name zabbix-agent
   • "Connect to" click DNS
   • Click Update
3. These changes will allow the Zabbix server to connect to the Zabbix agent

I am open to suggestions and improvement. Thanks!
