Compiling PHP for Zabbix 2.2 frontend

To compile PHP for Zabbix 2.2 frontend you will need to use the following keys:

[code]
./configure –enable-mbstring –enable-sockets –with-mysql –with-mysqli –with-ldap –enable-fpm –enable-bcmath –with-gettext –with-xmlrpc –with-openssl –with-mcrypt –with-gd –with-zlib –with-freetype-dir=/usr/include/freetype2 –with-jpeg-dir=/usr/lib
[/code]

PHP ini required values (minimal):

[code]
memory_limit = 128M
post_max_size = 16M
upload_max_filesize = 2M
max_execution_time = 300
max_input_time = 300
session.auto_start = 0
[/code]

Zabbix backup script without history data

Here is simple backup script for Zabbix 2 configuration data (hosts, items, templates etc). It will not backup history/event/trend data, so backup file is relatively small.

Just replace ZBX_DB and ZBX_USER with Zabbix database name and username.

[code]
mysqldump -u ZBX_USER -p ZBX_DB \
–ignore-table=ZBX_DB.acknowledges \
–ignore-table=ZBX_DB.alerts \
–ignore-table=ZBX_DB.auditlog \
–ignore-table=ZBX_DB.auditlog_details \
–ignore-table=ZBX_DB.escalations \
–ignore-table=ZBX_DB.events \
–ignore-table=ZBX_DB.history \
–ignore-table=ZBX_DB.history_log \
–ignore-table=ZBX_DB.history_str \
–ignore-table=ZBX_DB.history_str_sync \
–ignore-table=ZBX_DB.history_sync \
–ignore-table=ZBX_DB.history_text \
–ignore-table=ZBX_DB.history_uint \
–ignore-table=ZBX_DB.history_uint_sync \
–ignore-table=ZBX_DB.trends \
–ignore-table=ZBX_DB.trends_uint \
| gzip > zbx_db.sql.gz
