Zabbix-Vitrage Gateway
======================
Consolidate Zabbix alerts from across multiple sites into a single "at-a-glance" console by using a custom Zabbix [alertscript](https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/3.0/manual/config/notifications/media/script).
Installation
------------
**Note:** Don't try to use zabbix with docker image to test, because ``zabbix_vitrage.py`` requires some openstack libraries (``oslo.messaging`` and ``oslo.config``).
Copy the ``zabbix_vitrage.py`` script into the Zabbix servers' ``AlertScriptsPath`` directory which is by default ``/usr/lib/zabbix/alertscripts`` and make it executable:
.. code-block:: bash
$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openstack/vitrage/master/vitrage/datasources/zabbix/auxiliary/zabbix_vitrage.py
$ cp zabbix_vitrage.py /usr/lib/zabbix/alertscripts/
$ chmod 755 /usr/lib/zabbix/alertscripts/zabbix_vitrage.py
Install ``oslo.messaging`` and ``oslo.config`` to zabbix host (may require root):
.. code:: bash
$ pip install oslo.messaging oslo.config
Zabbix web ui configuration
---------------------------
To forward zabbix events to Vitrage a new media script needs to be created and associated with a user. Follow the steps below as a Zabbix Admin user:
1. Create a new media type [Admininstration > Media Types > Create Media Type]
| **Name:** Vitrage Notifications
| **Type:** Script
| **Script name:** zabbix_vitrage.py
| **Script parameters**:
| **1st line:** {ALERT.SENDTO}
| **2nd line:** {ALERT.SUBJECT}
| **3rd line:** {ALERT.MESSAGE}
2. Modify the Media for the Admin user [Administration > Users]
| **Type:** Vitrage Notifications
| **Send to:** ``rabbit://rabbit_user:rabbit_pass@127.0.0.1:5672/`` <--- Vitrage message bus url
| **When active:** 1-7,00:00-24:00
| **Use if severity:** tick all options
| **Status:** Enabled
**Note:** Default ``rabbit_user/rabbit_pass`` for devstack rabbitmq is ``stackrabbit/secret``
3. Configure Action [Configuration > Actions > Create Action > Action]
| **Name:** Forward to Vitrage
| **Default Subject:** {TRIGGER.STATUS}
| **Add an operation:**
| **Send to Users:** Admin
| **Send only to:** Vitrage Notifications
| **Default Message:**
| host={HOST.NAME1}
| hostid={HOST.ID1}
| hostip={HOST.IP1}
| triggerid={TRIGGER.ID}
| description={TRIGGER.NAME}
| rawtext={TRIGGER.NAME.ORIG}
| expression={TRIGGER.EXPRESSION}
| value={TRIGGER.VALUE}
| priority={TRIGGER.NSEVERITY}
| lastchange={EVENT.DATE} {EVENT.TIME}
| **To send events add under the Conditions tab:**
| (A) Maintenance status not in `maintenance`
For a full list of trigger macros see https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/3.0/manual/appendix/macros/supported_by_location
To test zabbix events and vitrage alarms, please see zabbix trigger documentation: https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/3.2/manual/config/triggers/trigger
Vitrage configuration
---------------------
1. Add zabbix to list of datasources in ``/etc/vitrage/vitrage.conf``
.. code::
[datasources]
types = zabbix,nova.host,nova.instance,nova.zone,static_physical,aodh,cinder.volume,neutron.network,neutron.port,heat.stack
2. Add following section to ``/etc/vitrage/vitrage.conf``
.. code::
[zabbix]
url = http://<ip>/zabbix # URL to zabbix
password = zabbix
user = admin
config_file = /etc/vitrage/zabbix_conf.yaml
2. Create ``/etc/vitrage/zabbix_conf.yaml`` with this content
.. code ::
zabbix:
- zabbix_host: Zabbix server
type: nova.host
name: Zabbix server
4. Restart vitrage service in devstack/openstack
