# What is Zabbix?
Zabbix is an enterprise-class open source distributed monitoring solution.
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.
For more information and related downloads for Zabbix components, please visit [`Red Hat Container Catalog`](https://access.redhat.com/containers/?tab=overview#/registry.connect.redhat.com/zabbix/zabbix-appliance) and https://zabbix.com
# What is Zabbix appliance?
Zabbix appliance contains MySQL database server, Zabbix server, Zabbix Java Gateway and Zabbix frontend based on Nginx web-server.
# Zabbix appliance images
These are the only official Zabbix appliance Docker images. They are based on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 images. The available versions of Zabbix appliance are:
Zabbix appliance 5.0
Zabbix appliance 6.0
Images are updated when new releases are published. The image with ``latest`` tag is based on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.
The image uses MySQL database. The image is very useful for testing purposes.
# How to use this image
## Start `zabbix-appliance`
Start a Zabbix server container as follows:
docker run --name some-zabbix-appliance -p 80:8080 -p 10051:10051 -d registry.connect.redhat.com/zabbix/zabbix-appliance:tag
Where `some-zabbix-appliance` is the name you want to assign to your container. See the list above for relevant tags, or look at the [full list of tags](https://access.redhat.com/containers/?tab=tags&platform=docker#/registry.connect.redhat.com/zabbix/zabbix-appliance).
## Container shell access and viewing Zabbix appliance logs
The `docker exec` command allows you to run commands inside a Docker container. The following command line will give you a bash shell inside your `zabbix-appliance` container:
```console
$ docker exec -ti some-zabbix-appliance /bin/bash
```
The Zabbix appliance logs is available through Docker's container log:
```console
$ docker logs some-zabbix-appliance
```
## Environment Variables
When you start the `zabbix-appliance` image, you can adjust the configuration of the Zabbix appliance by passing one or more environment variables on the `docker run` command line.

Please follow official Nginx [documentation](http://nginx.org/en/docs/http/configuring_https_servers.html) to get more details about how to create certificate files.
# The image variants
The `zabbix-appliance` images come in many flavors, each designed for a specific use case.
## `zabbix-appliance:ubuntu-<version>`
This is the defacto image. If you are unsure about what your needs are, you probably want to use this one. It is designed to be used both as a throw away container (mount your source code and start the container to start your app), as well as the base to build other images off of.
## `zabbix-appliance:alpine-<version>`
This image is based on the popular [Alpine Linux project](http://alpinelinux.org), available in [the `alpine` official image](https://hub.docker.com/_/alpine). Alpine Linux is much smaller than most distribution base images (~5MB), and thus leads to much slimmer images in general.
This variant is highly recommended when final image size being as small as possible is desired. The main caveat to note is that it does use [musl libc](http://www.musl-libc.org) instead of [glibc and friends](http://www.etalabs.net/compare_libcs.html), so certain software might run into issues depending on the depth of their libc requirements. However, most software doesn't have an issue with this, so this variant is usually a very safe choice. See [this Hacker News comment thread](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10782897) for more discussion of the issues that might arise and some pro/con comparisons of using Alpine-based images.
To minimize image size, it's uncommon for additional related tools (such as `git` or `bash`) to be included in Alpine-based images. Using this image as a base, add the things you need in your own Dockerfile (see the [`alpine` image description](https://hub.docker.com/_/alpine/) for examples of how to install packages if you are unfamiliar).
# Supported Docker versions
This image is officially supported on Docker version 1.12.0.
Support for older versions (down to 1.6) is provided on a best-effort basis.
Please see [the Docker installation documentation](https://docs.docker.com/installation/) for details on how to upgrade your Docker daemon.
