I recently started with Zabbix for monitoring around 150 VMs. These VMs are used for development purpose only and have been assigned to specific owners. The owners do not have a user in Zabbix, as it is not required. Is it possible to send mails to these specific owners, when a trigger to the respective server occurs?

Its a Zabbix-2.2.4 server setup, on a CentOS 6.5. All components of zabbix are in the same server. At present I have configured using SendEmail to send mail via a remote SMTP server to email ID of the users created in Zabbix.

I guess there is no direct option, please help me with some ideas to implement it, if anyhow possible.

Create user accounts for all the receivers, add corresponding media entries (emails) to them. Configure actions as usual, but place all of these users in a common usergroup that has "Frontend access" set to "Disabled" - this way they will be able to receive notifications, but not log into the frontend.

Alternatively, have a single user account with multiple user media entries for all the email addresses.

  • Thanks Richlv , I have put that as the last option. Just wanted to know if any other way it could be done. – beginer Jul 17 '14 at 03:44
