Change Log

[4.0.0-alpha1] - 2020-06-04

4.0 Feature highlights

Grafana-Zabbix 4.0 comes with a bunch of changes under the hood. The most important thing introduced is a backend, which brings a number of benefits:

  • Alerting support (limited, data processing functions are not supported yet).
  • Fixed security issues related to exposing data source credentials to the Grafana frontend and storing password as a plain text in database.
  • Improved performance (plugin can cache queries and process data on the backend).
  • With improved security it makes easier to add actions (execute scripts, close problems, etc).

Installation

Prerequisites: plugin requires Grafana 7.0 to run.

Version 4.0 is currently in alpha state and not published at grafana.com. In order to install it, follow these steps:

  1. Go to the GitHub releases and find latest 4.0.0 release.
  2. Download .zip package with plugin from release assets (asset name is grafana-zabbix-4.0.0-<alphaX|betaX>.zip).
  3. Unpack it and put into grafana plugins folder.
  4. Unsigned plugins are not loading by default, so allow it in config: 
    allow_loading_unsigned_plugins = alexanderzobnin-zabbix-datasource
  5. restart Grafana server

Refer to allow_loading_unsigned_plugins option description for more information.
