Zabbix 6.4 apparently introduced major menu shuffle. Configuration> Discovery is now: Data Collection > Discovery . Discover Actions is found under Alerts>Actions

Zabbix looks like something worth trying because always monitoring every aspect of your homelab gets very tedious and hard. Awesome tutorial Marc !

I've used Zabbix in all my jobs and I just love it, even though is a bit of a pain to configure and it always takes me some time to "get there" whenever I need to monitor anything new. Also, agreed on checking the documentation, the thing is truly very very powerful. An important thing to watch (I've been bitten by this) is to properly configure the "Housekeeping" parameters (it's basically the process that eliminates old data) so the database doesn't grow out of control, I've had to go and manually clear trends and such with the service stopped in order to get the server back to life. Pay attention to the active vs passive modes of operation, as that is key when designing the monitoring with this.

Something interesting probably to do a video on would be how to backup the server configuration and/or to migrate config between zabbix versions, as that's a very common thing that, at least, happened to me and never got to solve (lack of time, mainly).

Thanks for the video, your channel is awesome !

Bravo!! One of the best monitoring videos I ever seen. Useful, quick (taking into account information shared) and short to the point.
Great job as usual, congratulations.

Great job, thank you very much! Very detailed and clearly explained. Despite the new menu structure in 6.4, everything can be found quickly.

Amazing! Yes more please!! On how to add devices from different subnets. Zabbix Proxy. And whatever else we don't know!

10 hours of pain and I finally got it working. Docker was a major pain and I just installed it on a VM by itself. It still took forever on ubuntu and there were major documentation errors by zabbix. I can say now after setting all of this up, Zabbix has a STEEEEP learning curve beyond what you said here. Like SNMP monitoring, or HTTP auth monitoring. This is just scratching the surface.
