Dynamically add items in zabbix template










0















I have a Kinesis Stream with 10 shards. I want to create a single host on Zabbix by the name of the stream eg: Some_Kinesis_stream.
In the template I want to dynamically create items like "Some_Kinesis_stream..." for every shard that gets spawned. Is there a way to detect a new shard and create items like above?



I think some discovery rules need to used to trigger the template edition. I don't have a clear view on the implementation.



Also, there is no Zabbix Agent.

          Use a custom low level discovery (LLD) for that. In the LLD rule, have a prototype like Some_Kinesis_stream[#SHARD], and send JSON with all the streams as per the example in the documentation.

          • Could you please add some more details on creating the LLD for this requirement. Maybe a snapshot of a similar configuration.

          • Please see the linked documentation page, there is an example LLD JSON and a Perl example of generating such JSON.
