Monitoramento de servidores com Zabbix e Grafana

Abstract

The advancement of information technologies has made IT infrastructure monitoring an indispensable practice to ensure the availability and performance of services in corporate environments. This work presents the implementation of a monitoring solution based on the open source tools Zabbix 6.4 and Grafana in a virtualized environment using Oracle VirtualBox, composed of three virtual machines. The first virtual machine was configured with Ubuntu Server 22.04 LTS to host the Zabbix server, responsible for collecting and processing metrics. The second was configured with Windows Server 2022, with the Active Directory Domain Services installed, representing the monitored host. The third virtual machine, also running Ubuntu Server 22.04 LTS, was dedicated to Grafana, used as a data visualization platform. The integration between the two tools was carried out through the official Zabbix Plugin for Grafana, enabling the creation of interactive dashboards with real-time metrics from the monitored environment. The results demonstrated the technical feasibility of the proposed solution, confirming its applicability in real corporate infrastructures and its relevance as an accessible and efficient alternative for the proactive monitoring of Windows servers in virtualized environments.
