What you need for this book
It is important to know that in this book, we've made use of Red Hat Enterprise 6.x or one of the forks such as CentOS. Most recipes will work on other distributions as well but, in some cases, you'll probably have to look for files in other locations. Where possible the book has been updated for the latest Red Hat release v7 as Zabbix support was added during the progress of this book.
In this book, we will show you how to monitor an IPMI device with Zabbix. Obviously, you'll need an IPMI-capable device, and the same goes for SNMP monitoring. In Chapter 8, Monitoring VMware and Proxies, we will talk about VMware monitoring. For that, you need to have VMware vCenter 4.1 or a later version.
