Short update. "devel" branch has been added ttps://github.com/kloczek/zabbix-templates/tree/devel So far in the branch committed changes:
HOST::items
which presents number of host items vs number of unsuppoerted itemitems
with current counter of total host items (supported/unsupprted/enabled/disabled)
Hi to everyone who is watching this repo :)
I'm going to create devel branch within next 2-3 days and then start committing few changes which I already have queued like:
Up to this moment I will be glad if it will be possible only to review templates, triggers and items descriptions and all README.md files content first. I'm 100% that it is still a lot to clean on this area :p
Shortly after start work in devel branch hopefully I'll be able to commit tested enough well import_templates script changes. Initially this script will be able to import quickly all templates maintained in this repo. Zabbix has some issues which are kind of obstacles on sharing templates between multiple zabbix servers when when additionally set of those templates are changing.
Without describing now all related details of those issues I think that I can provide procedure of applying such updates in templates allowing to share work results done by many people using additional scripts and few API calls on template update procedure. Here I'm going to use my zapish.inc which is already used in export_templates script. Nevertheless this will be nothing more than only workaround for some real zabbix issues which sooner or later needs to be solved in zabbix code first. If pressure on solve those issues will be enough hihg because some bunch of people will be sharing some base set of templates I'm sure that Alexey and his team will try to invest some time to address and solve those (already well known) zabbix issues :) As long as necessary changes will be not implemented straight into zabbix I think that my way of dealing with those issues can provide working solutions of those issues.
If someone already tried to use MIB based templates to assemble monitoring some device please let me know about device type and please submit device template to SNMP Devices/ directory. On submitting such short template with only list of linked other MIB templates please submit result of the commands which I've described on https://github.com/kloczek/zabbix-templates/tree/master/SNMP%20Devices
On sharing those MIB based building blocks templates across many devices monitoring quite important is to verify that results of some changes done in one MIB template on top of one device will have the same or at least similar results in case of using modified/updated MIB template with other device. Different hardware vendors sometimes are embedding in own SNMP agents some changes in code handling even RFCed MIBs.
Happy hacking
