# Template DB MySQL by Zabbix agent 2

## Overview

For Zabbix version: 5.0 and higher  
The template is developed for monitoring DBMS MySQL and its forks.

This template was tested on:

- MySQL, version 5.7, 8.0
- Percona, version 8.0
- MariaDB, version 10.4

## Setup

> See [Zabbix template operation](https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/5.0/manual/config/templates_out_of_the_box/zabbix_agent2) for basic instructions.

1. Create MySQL user for monitoring (`<password>` at your discretion):

```text
CREATE USER 'zbx_monitor'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY '<password>';
GRANT REPLICATION CLIENT,PROCESS,SHOW DATABASES,SHOW VIEW ON *.* TO 'zbx_monitor'@'%';
```

For more information, please see MySQL documentation https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/grant.html

2. Set in the {$MYSQL.DSN} macro the data source name of the MySQL instance either session name from Zabbix agent 2 configuration file or URI.  
**Examples:** MySQL1, tcp://localhost:3306, tcp://172.16.0.10, unix:/var/run/mysql.sock  
For more information about MySQL Unix socket file, see the MySQL documentation https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/problems-with-mysql-sock.html.

3. If you had set URI in the {$MYSQL.DSN}, define the user name and password in host macros ({$MYSQL.USER} and {$MYSQL.PASSWORD}).  
Leave macros {$MYSQL.USER} and {$MYSQL.PASSWORD} empty if you use a session name. Set the user name and password in the Plugins.Mysql.<...> section of your Zabbix agent 2 configuration file.  
For more information about configuring the Zabbix MySQL plugin, see the documentation https://git.zabbix.com/projects/ZBX/repos/zabbix/browse/src/go/plugins/mysql/README.md.

## Zabbix configuration

No specific Zabbix configuration is required.
