This is a template for monitoring php-fpm and it’s pools with Zabbix.
What’s special about this template, is that it automatically detects (using LLD) the running php-fpm pools and creates items for measuring metrics from each pool. It uses Http Agent type check in zabbix in order to parse the php status information into useful metrics.
So, if you are running a server with multiple php-fpm pools, this may be a better alternative for monitoring php than other templates available.
This template was tested using:
| Software | Vesion |
| —— | —— |
| Zabbix Server | 4.0.3 |
| Debian | Stretch (9.8) |
| Php-fpm | 7.2 |
It might also work with other combination of versions.
This are the metrics created for each php-fpm pool:
|  |
Php-status should be enabled in the php-fpm pools.
Php-status should be accessible and located in /php-status_POOLNAME for each pool (see step 4 of Setup).
Even though this template is made with automation in mind, there’s still some manual steps to be done in the client (where php-fpm and zabbix-agent are running) in order to get it working:
# git clone https://github.com/vigrai/zabbix-template-php-fpm.git /tmp/zabbix-template
php-fpm.discover\_pools.pl into the /etc/zabbix directory and make it executable.
# cp /tmp/zabbix-template/php-fpm.discover\_pools.pl /etc/zabbix
# chmod +x /etc/zabbix/php-fpm.discover\_pools.pl
# chown zabbix.zabbix /etc/zabbix/php-fpm.discover\_pools.pl
# cp /tmp/zabbix-template/userparameter\_php-fpm.conf /etc/zabbix/zabbix\_agentd.d
[x] The pools should have php-status enabled.
[x] Php-status should be available in the path /fpm-status_[NAME-OF-THE-POOL]
Example configuration file for pool called nms (/etc/php/7.2/fpm/pool.d/nms.conf):
