Hello team, I'm having a problem with my Zabbix. Today, a problem arose where the CPU usage of one machine was at 100%, as seen in the vCenter. However, when checking the CPU usage in the Zabbix tool, I see that the behavior and values are different. In vCenter, it was at 100% for about 35 minutes, but in Zabbix, I only see it reaching 76% CPU utilization. Why are the CPU values different? Shouldn't they be the same? How can I make the values and behavior consistent? Could you help me? Thanks!

Item key system.cpu.util is information from OS, with update interval 20 minutes... While VMware information can be completely different. I recommend you to monitor VCenter using standard Zabbix templates for VMware. Anyway, Zabbix 6.0 currently has limited support only. |
