Hello Dmitry thanks a lot for you videos, I have one question here, If I need to monitor a remote site the proxy server should be locate with zabbix server or in the remote site ?

I need to instal a Zabbix Proxy because mi Zabbix Server has timeouts with snmp, but I am worried about the size of the database that the Zabbix Proxy could have. Could it be limited to only receive and forward all data to the Zabbix Server?

I have a case where I run a Zabbix server on a ship at sea. I was thinking maybe I could have both a Zabbix server, and a proxy on the ship, and a Zabbix server on shore. Then I would have the Zabbix proxy send information to both ship and shore Zabbix servers. Would that give me a Zabbix front-end on both ship and shore capable of controlling Zabbix on the ship? A few years ago I implemented a method of sending event information from ship to shore via the Zabbix API. It worked well on the limited bandwidth between ship and shore. It did not give me control on shore, but I got problem notifications. Now there is more ship-shore bandwidth, so I am thinking I might try this proxy solution again.

Not a good idea. You can configure agent to send data to both, but not the proxy. Once data is sent to one of the servers, it is marked as done and to be deleted.

@@zabbixtraining oh, I see. Thanks. I'll try it.

I just done the upgrade from 3.4 to 4.4. All of things are normal except for Zabbix proxy. If some agent connect to proxy, all of value of that host would be collecting but the graph is empty. Any one know how to fix it?

In a place which has access to remote network

[@heshamhafez8954]

@@zabbixtraining It's accessible from both, but my target is to save VPN traffic, so I think locating the proxy server in remote site to do all calculations over LAN then send only the values to zabbix server over VPN is the optimal solution Right?
