4 Hosts

Overview

Hosts are exported with many related objects and object relations.

Host export contains:

  • Linked host groups
  • Host data
  • Template linkage
  • Host group linkage
  • Host interfaces
  • Directly linked items
  • Directly linked triggers
  • Directly linked graphs
  • Directly linked discovery rules with all prototypes
  • Directly linked web scenarios
  • Host macros
  • Host inventory data
  • Value maps

Exporting

To export hosts, do the following:

  1. Go to Data collectionHosts.
  2. Mark the checkboxes of the hosts to export.
  3. Click on Export below the list.

Depending on the selected format, hosts are exported to a local file with a default name:

  • zabbix_export_hosts.yaml - in YAML export (default option for export);
  • zabbix_export_hosts.xml - in XML export;
  • zabbix_export_hosts.json - in JSON export.

Importing

To import hosts, do the following:

  1. Go to Data collectionHosts.
  2. Click on Import to the right.
  3. Select the import file.
  4. Click on Import.

If you mark the Advanced options checkbox, a detailed list of all importable elements will be displayed - mark or unmark each import rule as required.

If you click the checkbox in the All row, all elements below it become marked/unmarked.

Import rules:

Rule Description
Update existing Existing elements will be updated with data taken from the import file. Otherwise they will not be updated.
Create new The import will add new elements using data from the import file. Otherwise it will not add them.
Delete missing The import will remove existing elements not present in the import file. Otherwise it will not remove them.
If Delete missing is marked for template linkage, existing template linkage not present in the import file will be unlinked. Entities (items, triggers, graphs, etc.) inherited from the unlinked templates will not be removed (unless the Delete missing option is selected for each entity as well).

A success or failure message of the import will be displayed in the frontend.
