HOWTOs

Blackboard Learn Template

1. Deploy bb-extended-monitoring B2 on your Blackboard Learn instance located in templates/blackboard-learn/b2 folder
2. Import templates in templates/blackboard_learn to your Zabbix instance
3. Link the templates to the Blackboard Learn hosts in Zabbix

ElasticSearch, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, Redis, Oracle Database

1. Deploy monitor-bridge
2. Import templates/zbx_templates_extended.xml in Zabbix
3. In Zabbix, configure the JMX interface to point to monitor-bridge
4. Link the templates

Cassandra

1. Import templates/zbx_templates_extended.xml in Zabbix
2. Verify the JMX interface on your monitored host in Zabbix
3. Link the template to the monitored hosts
