Let's find out!<br \/>\n<noindex><a rel=\"nofollow\" name=\"habracut\"><\/a><\/noindex><br \/>\nAs a reminder, Zabbix is a universal system for monitoring the performance and availability of servers, engineering and network equipment, applications, databases, virtualization systems, containers, IT services, and web services.<\/p>\n<p>Zabbix implements a complete cycle from data collection, processing and transformation, analysis of the collected data, to storing, visualizing, and sending notifications using escalation rules. The system also provides flexible options for extending data collection and notification methods, as well as automation capabilities through the API. The single web interface enables centralized management of monitoring configurations and the distribution of access rights to various user groups. The project code is freely distributed under the license. <noindex><a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.zabbix.com\/license\">GPLv2<\/a><\/noindex>.<\/p>\n<p>Zabbix 4.2 is a new non-LTS version with a shorter official support period. For users looking for a long product lifecycle, we recommend using LTS versions such as 3.0 and 4.0.<\/p>\n<p>So, let's discuss the new features and major improvements in version 4.2:<\/p>\n<h1>More official platforms<\/h1>\n<p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Zabbix 4.2 has been released\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/197c6bd028023105039f2004faf9f67e.jpg\" style=\"display:block;margin: 0 auto;\" \/><br \/>\nIn addition to the existing official packages, we also offer new builds for:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>RaspberryPi, Mac OS\/X, SUSE Enterprise Linux Server 12<\/li>\n<li>MSI for Windows agent<\/li>\n<li>Docker images<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h1>Built-in support for Prometheus for application monitoring<\/h1>\n<p>\nZabbix can collect data in various ways (push\/pull) from different data sources. This includes JMX, SNMP, WMI, HTTP\/HTTPS, RestAPI, XML Soap, SSH, Telnet, agents, scripts, and other sources. And now, meet the support for Prometheus!<\/p>\n<p>Strictly speaking, data collection from Prometheus exporters was possible before thanks to the HTTP\/HTTPS data element type and regular expressions.<\/p>\n<p>However, the new version allows for maximum efficiency when working with Prometheus due to its built-in support for the PromQL query language. Using dependent metrics enables the collection and processing of data most effectively: you request the data once, and then distribute it across the necessary metrics.<\/p>\n<p><noindex><a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/habrastorage.org\/webt\/yr\/hi\/n1\/yrhin1viwxnpfro62umwlpqu6bk.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Zabbix 4.2 has been released\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/41dc9e5663a497c751da143b847ea5f5.jpg\" style=\"display:block;margin: 0 auto;\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a><\/noindex><i>Getting the value of a specific metric<\/i><\/p>\n<p>It is important to note that low-level detection can currently use collected data to automatically generate metrics.

Support for Prometheus will allow us to add a whole range of applications that have official or community-supported Prometheus exporters. This includes monitoring popular services, containers, and cloud resources.<\/p>\n<h1>Effective high-frequency monitoring<\/h1>\n<p>\nDo we want to detect problems as quickly as possible? Of course, there is no doubt! Most often, this approach leads to the necessity of polling devices and collecting data too frequently, resulting in a heavier load on the monitoring system. How can we avoid this?<\/p>\n<p>We have implemented a throttling mechanism in preprocessing rules. Throttling essentially allows us to skip identical values.<\/p>\n<p>Suppose we are monitoring the status of a critical application. Every second we check whether our application is functioning or not. In Zabbix, a continuous stream of data of 1 (working) and 0 (not working) comes in. For example: 1111111111110001111111111111\u2026<\/p>\n<p>When everything is fine with our application, Zabbix receives a stream of ones only. Is it necessary to process them? Generally not, since we are only interested in changes in the application\u2019s status; we do not want to collect and store so much data. Thus, throttling allows us to skip a value if it is identical to the previous one. As a result, we will only get data on the change of status, for example, 01010101\u2026 This is quite enough information to detect problems!<\/p>\n<p>Ignored values are simply disregarded by Zabbix, they are not recorded in history and do not affect triggers. From Zabbix's perspective, ignored values do not exist.<\/p>\n<p><noindex><a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/habrastorage.org\/webt\/cc\/tm\/yy\/cctmyymdqz1dztuzve2qat22cwy.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Zabbix 4.2 has been released\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/689868ab3f1dcb09396b34a26309d6bc.jpg\" style=\"display:block;margin: 0 auto;\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a><\/noindex><i>Ignoring duplicate values<\/i><\/p>\n<p>Great! Now we can poll devices very frequently while instantly detecting problems without storing unnecessary information in the database.<\/p>\n<p>But what about the graphs? They will be empty due to lack of data! And how can we tell if Zabbix is collecting data if most of it is being missed?<\/p>\n<p>We thought about that too! Zabbix offers another type of throttling, throttling with heartbeat.<\/p>\n<p><noindex><a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/habrastorage.org\/webt\/_3\/ul\/8z\/_3ul8zygs2pfcfi3i1xabwflzis.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Zabbix 4.2 has been released\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/03c4a7810bd52bba579e11ae41cf5242.jpg\" style=\"display:block;margin: 0 auto;\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a><\/noindex><i>We check once a minute whether the metric is alive<\/i><\/p>\n<p>In this case, Zabbix, despite the repeated stream of data, will save at least one value within the specified time interval. If data is collected once a second and the interval is set to one minute, Zabbix will convert a per-second stream of ones into a per-minute stream. It's easy to see that this leads to a 60-fold compression of the collected data.<\/p>\n<p>Now we are sure that data is being collected, the nodata() trigger function works, and the graphs are fine!<\/p>\n<h1>Validation of collected data and error handling<\/h1>\n<p>\nNone of us want to collect erroneous or unreliable data. For example, we know that the temperature sensor should return data within the range of 0\u00b0C to 100\u00b0C, and any other value should be considered erroneous and\/or ignored.<\/p>\n<p>This is now possible using built-in preprocessing validation rules for compliance or non-compliance with regular expressions, value ranges, JSONPath, and XMLPath.<\/p>\n<p>Now we can control the error response. If the temperature is out of range, we can simply ignore that value, set a default value (for example, 0\u00b0C), or define our own error message, such as 'Sensor damaged' or 'Replace the battery.'<\/p>\n<p><noindex><a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/habrastorage.org\/webt\/qt\/4w\/u4\/qt4wu4ybdrpzhhm9daoktvrpyyu.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Zabbix 4.2 has been released\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/742dd937b15e94a894d8bd99f714aff5.jpg\" style=\"display:block;margin: 0 auto;\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a><\/noindex><i>Temperature must be between 0 and 100, everything else is ignored<\/i><\/p>\n<p>A good example of using validation is the ability to check incoming data for the presence of an error message and set this error for the entire metric. This functionality is very useful when receiving data from external APIs.<\/p>\n<h1>Any data transformation using JavaScript<\/h1>\n<p>\nIf the built-in preprocessing rules are not enough for us, we now offer complete freedom with the use of arbitrary scripts in JavaScript!<\/p>\n<p><noindex><a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/habrastorage.org\/webt\/rp\/gh\/4k\/rpgh4kexxwi2hwi56yehsv-n-e8.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Zabbix 4.2 has been released\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/f8435836a6e1b55d24628f3001f98ec2.jpg\" style=\"display:block;margin: 0 auto;\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a><\/noindex><i>Just one line of code to convert degrees Fahrenheit to degrees Celsius<\/i><\/p>\n<p>This opens up limitless possibilities for processing incoming data.

Now the proxies handle this!<\/p>\n<p><noindex><a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/habrastorage.org\/webt\/vq\/un\/e4\/vqune4kzcxmaujwsrmesh24mbn4.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Zabbix 4.2 has been released\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/460e76933e3cbe81c9f524f2c7451395.jpg\" style=\"display:block;margin: 0 auto;\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a><\/noindex><br \/>\nIn combination with throttling, this approach enables high-frequency large-scale monitoring and allows for millions of checks per second without overloading the central Zabbix server. Proxies handle gigantic data volumes, with only a small part reaching the Zabbix server due to throttling, one to two orders of magnitude less.<\/p>\n<h1>Simpler low-level discovery<\/h1>\n<p>\nLet us remind you that low-level discovery (LLD) is a very powerful mechanism for automatically discovering any kind of resources for monitoring (file systems, processes, applications, services, etc.) and automatically creating data items, triggers, network nodes, and other objects based on them. This incredibly saves time, simplifies configuration, and allows the use of a single template for network nodes with different monitoring resources.<\/p>\n<p>Low-level discovery required specially formatted JSON as input. Well, that will no longer be the case!<\/p>\n<p>Zabbix 4.2 allows low-level discovery (LLD) to use arbitrarily formatted JSON data. Why is this important? It enables communication with external APIs, for instance, without resorting to scripts and utilizes the obtained information for the automatic creation of network nodes, data items, and triggers.<\/p>\n<p>Combined with support for JavaScript, this creates fantastic opportunities for creating templates that work with various data sources, such as cloud APIs, application APIs, data in XML, CSV formats, and more.<\/p>\n<p><noindex><a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/habrastorage.org\/webt\/8_\/b7\/ah\/8_b7ahwhyjkg2dd9ay7skq90oym.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Zabbix 4.2 has been released\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/7c4757d90d7d380cce2d7ba6d759ad3a.jpg\" style=\"display:block;margin: 0 auto;\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a><\/noindex><i>Linking JSON with process information using LLD<\/i><\/p>\n<p>The possibilities are truly limitless!<\/p>\n<h1>Support for TimescaleDB<\/h1>\n<p>\n<noindex><a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/habrastorage.org\/webt\/by\/oa\/x6\/byoax6nnwkszlr-qyrn6vl0a6n4.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Zabbix 4.2 has been released\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/bb33bf4aea45acc9f85c72e9e0982f3a.jpg\" style=\"display:block;margin: 0 auto;\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a><\/noindex><\/p>\n<p>What is TimescaleDB? It's standard PostgreSQL plus an extension module from the TimescaleDB team. TimescaleDB promises better performance through more efficient algorithms and data structures.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, another advantage of TimescaleDB is automatic table partitioning for historical data. TimescaleDB ensures speed and ease of maintenance! However, I must note that our team has not yet conducted a serious performance comparison with standard PostgreSQL.<\/p>\n<p>At present, TimescaleDB is a fairly young and rapidly evolving product. Use with caution!<\/p>\n<h1>Easy tag management<\/h1>\n<p>\nPreviously, tags could only be managed at the trigger level, but now tag management is much more flexible. Zabbix supports tags for templates and network nodes!<\/p>\n<p>All detected issues receive tags not only from triggers but also from network nodes and the templates of those network nodes.<\/p>\n<p><noindex><a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/origin\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Zabbix 4.2 has been released\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/15bc7fac2ce1d3a3512cf5e02b3f96d1.jpg\" style=\"display:block;margin: 0 auto;\" \/><\/a><\/noindex><br \/>\n<i>Defining tags for network nodes<\/i><\/p>\n<h1>More flexible auto-registration<\/h1>\n<p>\nZabbix 4.2 allows filtering network nodes by name using regular expressions. This enables the creation of different discovery scenarios for various groups of network nodes. This is especially convenient if we are using complex naming rules for devices.<\/p>\n<h1>More flexible network discovery<\/h1>\n<p>\nAnother improvement relates to the naming of network nodes. There is now the ability to manage device names during network discovery and obtain the device name from the metric value.<\/p>\n<p>This functionality is very much needed, especially during network discovery using SNMP and the Zabbix agent.<\/p>\n<p><noindex><a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/habrastorage.org\/webt\/x4\/js\/u3\/x4jsu3mbrshjgvb5ob1b-6zs3lu.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Zabbix 4.2 has been released\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/04\/5c8fc10eef9300f56f9c52f19c523422.jpg\" style=\"display:block;margin: 0 auto;\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a><\/noindex><i>Automatically assign the local network node name to the visible name<\/i><\/p>\n<h1>Checking the functionality of notification methods<\/h1>\n<p>Now you can send yourself a test message directly from the Web interface to check if the notification method is working.
