Proxmox VE by HTTP

Overview

This template is designed for the effortless deployment of Proxmox VE monitoring by Zabbix via HTTP and doesn't require any external scripts.

Proxmox VE uses a REST like API. The concept is described in Resource Oriented Architecture (ROA).

Check the API documentation for details.

Requirements

Zabbix version: 7.0 and higher.

Tested versions

This template has been tested on:

Proxmox VE

Configuration

Zabbix should be configured according to the instructions in the Templates out of the box section.

Setup

Create an API token for the monitoring user. Important note: for security reasons, it is recommended to create a separate user (Datacenter - Permissions).

Please provide the necessary access levels for both the User and the Token:

Check: ["perm","/",["Sys.Audit"]]
Check: ["perm","/storage",["Datastore.Audit"]]
Check: ["perm","/vms",["VM.Audit"]]

Copy the resulting Token ID and Secret into the host macros {$PVE.TOKEN.ID} and {$PVE.TOKEN.SECRET}.
Set the hostname or IP address of the Proxmox API VE host in the {$PVE.URL.HOST} macro. You can also change the API port in the {$PVE.URL.PORT} macro if necessary.

Proxmox VE by HTTP

Overview

For Zabbix version: 6.2 and higher
Proxmox VE uses a REST like API. The concept is described in (Resource Oriented Architecture - ROA).

We choose JSON as primary data format, and the whole API is formally defined using JSON Schema.

You can explore the API documentation at http://pve.proxmox.com/pve-docs/api-viewer/index.html

Setup

Create an API token for the monitoring user. Important note: for security reasons, it is recommended to create a separate user (Datacenter - Permissions).

For the created API token and user, provide the necessary access levels:

Check: ["perm","/",["Sys.Audit"]]
Check: ["perm","/nodes/{node}",["Sys.Audit"]]
Check: ["perm","/vms/{vmid}",["VM.Audit"]]

Copy the resulting Token ID and Secret into host macros.

Zabbix configuration

No specific Zabbix configuration is required.

Feedback

Please report any issues with the template at https://support.zabbix.com

This template is for Zabbix version: 6.0

Also available for: 7.0 6.4 6.2

Source: https://git.zabbix.com/projects/ZBX/repos/zabbix/browse/templates/app/proxmox?at=release/6.0

Proxmox VE by HTTP

Overview

This template is designed for the effortless deployment of Proxmox VE monitoring by Zabbix via HTTP and doesn't require any external scripts.

Proxmox VE uses a REST like API. The concept is described in Resource Oriented Architecture (ROA).

Check the API documentation for details.

Requirements

Zabbix version: 6.0 and higher.

Tested versions

This template has been tested on:

Proxmox VE

Configuration

Zabbix should be configured according to the instructions in the Templates out of the box section.

Setup

Create an API token for the monitoring user. Important note: for security reasons, it is recommended to create a separate user (Datacenter - Permissions).

Please provide the necessary access levels for both the User and the Token:

Check: ["perm","/",["Sys.Audit"]]
Check: ["perm","/storage",["Datastore.Audit"]]
Check: ["perm","/vms",["VM.Audit"]]

Copy the resulting Token ID and Secret into the host macros {$PVE.TOKEN.ID} and {$PVE.TOKEN.SECRET}.
Set the hostname or IP address of the Proxmox API VE host in the {$PVE.URL.HOST} macro. You can also change the API port in the {$PVE.URL.PORT} macro if necessary.

Macros used

Name	Description	Default
{$PVE.URL.HOST}	The hostname or IP address of the Proxmox VE API host.	`<SET PVE HOST>`
{$PVE.URL.PORT}	The API uses the HTTPS protocol and the server listens to port 8006 by default.	`8006`
{$PVE.TOKEN.ID}	API tokens allow stateless access to most parts of the REST API by another system, software or API client.	`USER@REALM!TOKENID`
{$PVE.TOKEN.SECRET}	Secret key.	`xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx`
{$PVE.ROOT.PUSE.MAX.WARN}	Maximum used root space in percentage.	`90`
{$PVE.MEMORY.PUSE.MAX.WARN}	Maximum used memory in percentage.	`90`
{$PVE.CPU.PUSE.MAX.WARN}	Maximum used CPU in percentage.	`90`
{$PVE.SWAP.PUSE.MAX.WARN}	Maximum used swap space in percentage.	`90`
{$PVE.VM.MEMORY.PUSE.MAX.WARN}	Maximum used memory in percentage.	`90`
{$PVE.VM.CPU.PUSE.MAX.WARN}	Maximum used CPU in percentage.	`90`
{$PVE.LXC.MEMORY.PUSE.MAX.WARN}	Maximum used memory in percentage.	`90`
{$PVE.LXC.CPU.PUSE.MAX.WARN}	Maximum used CPU in percentage.	`90`
{$PVE.LXC.DISK.PUSE.MAX.WARN}	Maximum used disk in percentage.	`90`
{$PVE.STORAGE.PUSE.MAX.WARN}	Maximum used storage space in percentage.	`90`
