<h1 id="what-is-zabbix-">What is Zabbix?</h1>
<p>Zabbix is an enterprise-class open source distributed monitoring solution.</p>
<p>Zabbix is software that monitors numerous parameters of a network and the health and integrity of servers. Zabbix uses a flexible notification mechanism that allows users to configure e-mail based alerts for virtually any event. This allows a fast reaction to server problems. Zabbix offers excellent reporting and data visualisation features based on the stored data. This makes Zabbix ideal for capacity planning.</p>

<h1 id="what-is-zabbix-web-interface-">What is Zabbix web interface?</h1>
<p>Zabbix web interface is a part of Zabbix software. It is used to manage resources under monitoring and view monitoring statistics.</p>
<h1 id="zabbix-web-interface-images">Zabbix web interface images</h1>
<p>These are the only official Zabbix web interface Podman images. Images are updated when new releases are published.</p>
<p>Zabbix web interface available in four editions:</p>
<ul>
<li>Zabbix web-interface based on Apache2 web server with MySQL database support</li>
<li>Zabbix web-interface based on Apache2 web server with PostgreSQL database support</li>
<li>Zabbix web-interface based on Nginx web server with MySQL database support</li>
<li>Zabbix web-interface based on Nginx web server with PostgreSQL database support</li>
</ul>

<h1 id="how-to-use-this-image">How to use this image</h1>
<h2 id="start-zabbix-web-nginx-pgsql-">Start <code>zabbix-web-nginx-pgsql</code></h2>
<p>Start a Zabbix web-interface container as follows:</p>
<pre><code>podman <span class="hljs-keyword">run</span><span class="bash"> --name some-zabbix-web-nginx-pgsql <span class="hljs-_">-e</span> DB_SERVER_HOST=<span class="hljs-string">"some-postgres-server"</span> <span class="hljs-_">-e</span> POSTGRES_USER=<span class="hljs-string">"some-user"</span> <span class="hljs-_">-e</span> POSTGRES_PASSWORD=<span class="hljs-string">"some-password"</span> <span class="hljs-_">-e</span> ZBX_SERVER_HOST=<span class="hljs-string">"some-zabbix-server"</span> <span class="hljs-_">-e</span> PHP_TZ=<span class="hljs-string">"some-timezone"</span> <span class="hljs-_">-d</span> zabbix/zabbix-web-nginx-pgsql:tag</span>

</code></pre><h2 id="container-shell-access-and-viewing-zabbix-web-interface-logs">Container shell access and viewing Zabbix web interface logs</h2>
<p>The <code>podman exec</code> command allows you to run commands inside a Podman container. The following command line will give you a bash shell inside your <code>zabbix-web-nginx-pgsql</code> container:</p>
<pre><code class="lang-console">$ podman exec -ti <span class="hljs-keyword">some</span>-zabbix-web-nginx-pgsql /bin/bash

</code></pre>
<h2 id="environment-variables">Environment Variables</h2>
<p>When you start the <code>zabbix-web-nginx-pgsql</code> image, you can adjust the configuration of the Zabbix web interface by passing one or more environment variables on the <code>podman run</code> command line.</p>
<h3 id="-zbx_server_host-"><code>ZBX_SERVER_HOST</code></h3>
<p>This variable is IP or DNS name of Zabbix server. By default, value is <code>zabbix-server</code>.</p>
<h3 id="-zbx_server_port-"><code>ZBX_SERVER_PORT</code></h3>
<p>This variable is port Zabbix server listening on. By default, value is <code>10051</code>.</p>
<h3 id="-db_server_host-"><code>DB_SERVER_HOST</code></h3>
<p>This variable is IP or DNS name of PostgreSQL server. By default, value is &#39;postgres-server&#39;</p>
<h3 id="-db_server_port-"><code>DB_SERVER_PORT</code></h3>
<p>This variable is port of PostgreSQL server. By default, value is &#39;5432&#39;.</p>
<h3 id="-postgres_user-postgres_password-postgres_user_file-postgres_password_file-"><code>POSTGRES_USER</code>, <code>POSTGRES_PASSWORD</code>, <code>POSTGRES_USER_FILE</code>, <code>POSTGRES_PASSWORD_FILE</code></h3>
<p>These variables are used by Zabbix web interface to connect to Zabbix database. With the <code>_FILE</code> variables you can instead provide the path to a file which contains the user / the password instead. Without Docker Swarm or Kubernetes you also have to map the files. Those are exclusive so you can just provide one type - either <code>POSTGRES_USER</code> or <code>POSTGRES_USER_FILE</code>!</p>
<pre><code class="lang-console">podman <span class="hljs-keyword">run</span><span class="bash"> --name some-zabbix-web-nginx-pgsql <span class="hljs-_">-e</span> DB_SERVER_HOST=<span class="hljs-string">"some-postgres-server"</span> -v ./.POSTGRES_USER:/run/secrets/POSTGRES_USER <span class="hljs-_">-e</span> POSTGRES_USER_FILE=/run/secrets/POSTGRES_USER -v ./.POSTGRES_PASSWORD:/run/secrets/POSTGRES_PASSWORD <span class="hljs-_">-e</span> POSTGRES_PASSWORD_FILE=/var/run/secrets/POSTGRES_PASSWORD <span class="hljs-_">-e</span> ZBX_SERVER_HOST=<span class="hljs-string">"some-zabbix-server"</span> <span class="hljs-_">-e</span> PHP_TZ=<span class="hljs-string">"some-timezone"</span> <span class="hljs-_">-d</span> zabbix/zabbix-web-nginx-pgsql:tag</span>
</code></pre>
<p>With Docker Swarm or Kubernetes this works with secrets. That way it is replicated in your cluster!</p>
<pre><code class="lang-console"><span class="hljs-built_in">printf</span> <span class="hljs-string">"zabbix"</span> | podman secret create POSTGRES_USER -
<span class="hljs-built_in">printf</span> <span class="hljs-string">"zabbix"</span> | podman secret create POSTGRES_PASSWORD -
