Monitoring Backuppc with Zabbix

This is based on script found in thread https://www.zabbix.com/forum/showthread.php?t=17273

Tested with Zabbix 4.4 (http://www.zabbix.com/) and Backuppc v4.3.2 (http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/).

Docker and adaptations

This template has been adapted to work with a Dockerized version of BackupPC, especially (https://github.com/adferrand/docker-backuppc)

Install a Zabbix Agent on the Docker host

We need to monitor the physical host so we'll benefot from his connection to docker.

You'll need to adjust these two values on the agent and the Timeout has to be adjusted on the server also !

EnableRemoteCommands=1
Timeout=6

Add zabbix_sender binary to the adferrand/docker-backuppc container

docker exec -u root -it backuppc bash
apk add zabbix-utils
exit

Replicate our scripts on your server and give them the good rights (you should already have the same user/group)

mkdir /home/backuppc/scripts
cd /home/backuppc/scripts
wget https://git.antipode.net/antipode.info/zabbix-backuppc/raw/branch/master/home/backuppc/scripts/zabbix-backuppc.pl
wget https://git.antipode.net/antipode.info/zabbix-backuppc/raw/branch/master/home/backuppc/zabbix-discover-backuppc.pl
chown -R backuppc:backuppc /home/backuppc/scripts
chmod +x /home/backuppc/scripts/zabbix-*

Import the template XML file to your server and assign it to your BackupPC hosts

The template contains
