Hi, we have a Zabbix monitoring solution up and running here but now we want to add additional database monitoring. Although I followed your installation guide I was not able to get the database monitoring online. Here I’m checking from my Zabbix installation towards the same host: sudo -u zabbix zabbix_get –host=192.168.0.10 –source-address=192.168.0.10 –key=“FromDual.MySQL.check” ZBX_NOTSUPPORTED Template is applied to the host configuration. If I fire up the perl script I also receive data in Zabbix but the script will never be executed by the agent neither do I find any errors in agent log.

What is MyEnv?

FromDual MyEnv is a database environment to run and operate several different MariaDB, MySQL or PostgreSQL database instances simultaneously on the SAME machine. You can even run multiple database instances with different binary versions. We call this multi-instance set-ups.
