Hi.

I also use Zabbix here. Its problem is that it collects metrics in real time, this is not its function.
There are other alternatives like Elasticsearch + metricbeat, but from what I've tested, it's very heavy and uses a lot of disk space lol.

I never used Prometheus, I found it interesting. I'll do some tests.

@Patrick Dubois How often do you collect information with Zabbix? Every 1 minute?

Because for example... for the information to be used correctly for analysis, we have to have an IO load of at least 1 continuous minute so that Zabbix can collect the correct information.

Cheers!

For detailed monitoring I use Zabbix. This way I get detailed metrics
on my hypervisors, VMs as well as my network storage.

If a machine starts generating large IO I get alerts highlighting the
responsible machine as well as the impacted services. For example, you
might get high IO on a VM but also the correlated high latency on
systems sharing the storage.

Sometimes users will report the the high latency, masking the real
problem so it's nice to have a holistic view of the entire environment.
