      I just upgraded my install from Zabbix 3.0.5 to 3.2.1 painlessly.

      yum -y install http://repo.zabbix.com/zabbix/3.2/rhel/7/x86_64/zabbix-release-3.2-1.el7.noarch.rpm
yum clean all
yum -y upgrade

      Only poked around a little but everything seems to be working.

      I only have 6 devices reporting in on this for the moment. Been meaning to get this fully functional for months now.

        Same here I really need to wipe mine and re-do it all and get some better info out of it like Performance and IOPS on the servers etc, instead of just ping to see if up or down

          Had to modify the instructions a bit to handle SELinux. The below have been added to the first post already.

          Install SELinux tools.

          yum -y install setroubleshoot setools

          After your system is up and running, reboot. You should hopefully have a problem with SELinux blocking a couple of things.

          [root@zabbix ~]# sealert -a /var/log/audit/audit.log | grep zabbix
SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/zabbix_server_mysql from using the setrlimit access on a process.
<snip lots of text>
SELinux is preventing /usr/sbin/zabbix_agentd from using the setrlimit access on a process.

          Now that these errors are in the audit log, we can set up SELinux to allow it.

          If anyone knows SELinux well enough to create the policies needed without waiting for a fail, just let me know. I will be happy to update these instructions.

          ausearch -c 'zabbix_server' --raw | audit2allow -M my-zabbixserver
semodule -i my-zabbixserver.pp
ausearch -c 'zabbix_agentd' --raw | audit2allow -M my-zabbixagentd
semodule -i my-zabbixagentd.pp

            Did anyone get Zabbix working over SSL? I'm getting a 403 error when I try to setup the certificates.

              I'm planning to do this and I think the best way (from what I've read) is to use a proxy to handle the SSL cert for you

                Does this mean proxying internal connections as well?

                I know Scott loves his LANLess design, so maybe my question is meaningless, because to him there is no internal?

                  Yes, you could setup a proxy on the same box as Zabbix.

                    Zabbix makes their own Proxy as well just as a side note

                      I wasn't aware. I've got the SSL "working" kind of but need to troubleshoot my virtualhost declaration as to why it isn't working.

                        Wish I could help more. This is something I am doing in the very near future though.

                          I'm about setup Zabbix with above script on CentOS 8.

                          Do I just need to update the link below, to get latest Zabbix version? all remains same?
                          http://repo.zabbix.com/zabbix/5.0/rhel/8/x86_64/zabbix-release-5.0-1.el8.noarch.rpm

                            This is a 4 year old guide, no guarantees.

                            But yes, it will likely be that easy.
