The system that hosts the demo instance we discovered a moment ago also serves as a community platform. Primarily, it's a MediaWiki instance that has a large amount of useful information, and we have referred to it a few times already. Here are a few of its interesting features:
- Zabbix templates
- Zabbix technical documentation, including the Zabbix protocol documentation
- Various Zabbix guidelines, including bug-reporting guidelines and IRC etiquette
- A list of Zabbix API libraries
- Various how-tos, including instructions on high-availability setups and the installation process
The content is flexible, and it is suggested you investigate what is available on
http://zabbix.org/wiki/Main_Page every now and then.
This book was also supposed to cover how great it is to have new feature specifications available on the Zabbix website, but unfortunately, the Zabbix team has decided to withdraw them. You can still find old specifications at http://zabbix.org/wiki/Category:Specifications.
It being a Wiki, everybody is welcome to participate. See a mistake or something missing? Just go ahead and improve it. Want to write instructions for some process you found non-trivial to perform? Go ahead and create a new page. And if you are not sure about it, just ask on IRC, and somebody will surely help.
There is also a Zabbix-related resource directory at http://share.zabbix.com . It does not host most of the content; instead, it usually links to templates or scripts on GitHub or a Zabbix website page. We won't look into it in any detail at this time, as the functionality is a bit limited, but it is suggested to visit it every now and then to check whether it has improved.
