Zabbix Installation
To help the Development Team to know how our hardware is performing and see the hardware metrics of the whole cluster, we are asking you to enable a central monitoring platform called Zabbix. We will use this info to make recomendations if/when we require upgraded equipment
NOTE: Run as root Prepend comands with sudo or use sudo -i for the session.
Installation of the Zabbix Binaries

systemctl restart zabbix-agentNOTE: We have this service firewalled! You must fill out the onboarding form in Validator Installation so we can allow your box to send us metrics!
Port Configuration
