about_PSZabbix SHORT DESCRIPTION This modules enables an administrator to do and automate common administration operations on a Zabbix server. LONG DESCRIPTION This module aims at making it easy to automate the creation of standard objects inside Zabbix. That way, Zabbix can be included inside fully automated workflows like server provisioning. It may for example be used inside a script task of SCVMM to reference a new VM inside Zabbix after creation, or to add a newly created user (by your preferred provisioning tool) to a set of user groups. The objects which can be managed are only the basic objects: hosts, host groups, users, user groups, templates and a few others. The module does not expose the full Zabbix API. We actually expect administrators to use the Zabbix UI to do complex operations like adding monitored items to hosts or templates (moreover, these operations being rare, there is little value in automating them). This module is tested on Zabbix 2.4 and later, 3.2 and later. It should also work and other versions but without any guarantee.
