In this KB, we will install the Zabbix Monitoring Server on CentOS 7.
\n<\/p>\n

Install the basics. Add this as install.sh on the server:<\/p>\n

# yum install nano -y<\/pre>\n
# nano install.sh<\/pre>\n
Add the following to the file:<\/p>\n
\n#!\/bin\/bash\nyum update -y\nyum install -y epel-release\nyum -y groupinstall 'Development Tools'\nyum -y install yum-utils\nyum install httpd -y\nsystemctl enable httpd.service\nsystemctl start httpd.service\nyum install mariadb-server mariadb -y\nsystemctl enable mariadb\nsystemctl start mariadb\nsudo mysql_secure_installation\nyum -y install httpd mod_ssl php php-zip php-fpm php-devel php-gd php-imap php-ldap php-mysql php-odbc php-pear php-xml php-xmlrpc php-pecl-apc php-mbstring php-mcrypt php-soap php-tidy curl curl-devel perl-libwww-perl ImageMagick libxml2 libxml2-devel mod_fcgid php-cli httpd-devel php-fpm php-intl php-imagick php-pspell wget\nyum install php php-pear -y\nsystemctl restart httpd.service\nyum install firewalld -y\nsystemctl enable firewalld\nsystemctl start firewalld\nsudo firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=public --add-service=http\nsudo firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=public --add-service=https\nsudo firewall-cmd --reload\n<\/pre>\n
Make executable:<\/p>\n
# chmod +x install.sh\n<\/pre>\n
Run the script:<\/p>\n
# .\/install.sh\n<\/pre>\n
Installl Zabbix:<\/p>\n
# rpm --import http:\/\/repo.zabbix.com\/RPM-GPG-KEY-ZABBIX\n# rpm -ivh http:\/\/repo.zabbix.com\/zabbix\/3.4\/rhel\/7\/x86_64\/zabbix-release-3.4-1.el7.centos.noarch.rpm\n# yum install zabbix-server-mysql zabbix-web-mysql zabbix-agent zabbix-get zabbix-sender zabbix-java-gateway -y\n<\/pre>\n
Create the database:<\/p>\n
# mysql -u root -p\nEnter password:\nWelcome to the MariaDB monitor.  Commands end with ; or \\g.\nYour MariaDB connection id is 11\nServer version: 5.5.56-MariaDB MariaDB Server\nCopyright (c) 2000, 2017, Oracle, MariaDB Corporation Ab and others.\nType 'help;' or '\\h' for help. Type '\\c' to clear the current input statement.\nMariaDB [(none)]&gt; CREATE DATABASE zabbixdb CHARACTER SET utf8 COLLATE utf8_bin;\nQuery OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)\nMariaDB [(none)]&gt; GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON zabbixdb.* TO zabbixuser@localhost IDENTIFIED BY "password";\nQuery OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)\nMariaDB [(none)]&gt; FLUSH PRIVILEGES;\nQuery OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)\nMariaDB [(none)]&gt; quit\n<\/pre>\n
Import initial database:<\/p>\n
# zcat \/usr\/share\/doc\/zabbix-server-mysql-3.4.7\/create.sql.gz | mysql -uroot -p zabbixdb\n<\/pre>\n
edit database configuration in the zabbix server configuration file zabbix_server.conf<\/p>\n
# nano \/etc\/zabbix\/zabbix_server.conf\n<\/pre>\n
Specify the database name for zabbix , database user name and the password<\/p>\n
DBHost=localhost\nDBName=zabbixdb\nDBUser=zabbixuser\nDBPassword=Password\n\n<\/pre>\n
Set SELinux settings and adjust Firewall
\nHaving SELinux status enabled in enforcing mode, you need to execute the following command to enable successful connection of Zabbix frontend to the server<\/p>\n
# setsebool -P httpd_can_network_connect=1\n# setsebool -P httpd_can_connect_zabbix=1\n# setsebool -P zabbix_can_network=1\n\n<\/pre>\n
Restart Apache:<\/p>\n
# systemctl start httpd\n<\/pre>\n
Start\/Enable Zabbix<\/p>\n
# systemctl enable zabbix-server \n# systemctl start zabbix-server\n# systemctl enable zabbix-agent \n# systemctl start zabbix-agent\n<\/pre>\n
Configure Zabbix
\nNavigate to http:\/\/ip_address\/zabbix or http:\/\/host_name\/zabbix
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n
Make sure that all software prerequisites are met.<\/p>\n
