Template to monitor Synology Hyperbackup status.

Create a zabbix user in your DSM. The user should be in the administrator group as it must be able to ssh to the DSM. You can disable access to all folders and to all programs/functions. Login on DSM with administrative/root account and create /etc/sudoers.d/zabbix with this inside: zabbix ALL = NOPASSWD: /bin/more /var/log/messages, /bin/grep This tells the system that the user zabbix can run as root only this 2 commands without the root password.

Assign the template to the synology. Pay attention to: the template uses the Dns name of the synology to do the discovery and other stuff.
