This page describe the server requirements to install Zabbix monitoring.
You can skip that part if you already have a running server.
Contents
Requirements
You network must contain | provide:
- DNS server
- DHCP server
- Internet access
The server must have:
- Apache 2 web server
- MySQL server
- Firewall with allowance for INPUT TCP 10051
- SNMP client
O.S installation
On dedicated hardware you need to install Ubuntu Server 14.04 LTS using an USB key.
System configuration
Update sources.list and install key packages
Edit your sources.list
apt-get install vim
vim /etc/apt/sources.list
Put the following:
### Custom repositories list
#
# May 2014 - Guillaume Diaz
# This is an ajdustement of the default "debootstrap" sources.list
# This is required to provided update, security and advanced tools to all our clients
#
#########################
# Ubuntu 14.04 LTS [Trusty]
#########################
# Official repositories
deb http://se.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://se.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-updates main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu trusty-security main restricted universe multiverse
# Official updates
deb http://se.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-backports main restricted universe multiverse
# Canonical partners
#deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu trusty partner
# Community partners
#deb http://extras.ubuntu.com/ubuntu trusty main
Update your package list:
apt-get update && apt-get upgrade
Linux utilities
Now, you can install the basic programs:
# NFS is a bit low, and if you're using many client it might result in time faults.
# You must install NTP to overcome this !!
apt-get install ntp ntpdate
# Basic set of utilities
apt-get install unzip zip htop python3 sysv-rc-conf mc
# Network tools
apt-get install curl
# Advanced APT manager (require to add repository from command line)
apt-get install software-properties-common python-software-properties
# SSH server
apt-get install openssh-server openssh-client
Adjust bash and vim configuration
Edit your VIM configuration:
vim /etc/vim/vimrcEnable dark background + set nu + set ruler
Edit your bash configuration files to adjust the alias and enable auto-completion:
vim /etc/bash.bashrc
vim /home/<username>/.bashrc
vim /root/.bashrc
Setup network interfaces
Even though you're using the NetBoot process you still have to register some interfaces! More important, the NetBoot disable the loopback "lo" - so you should better add that one back!
# Adjust "xxxx" by your distribution name
vim /etc/network/interfaces
Add:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
# Ethernet default interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
# Intel NUC ethernet interface is named em1
auto em1
iface em1 inet dhcp
