## Zabbix on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
Zabbix is a leading open source enterprise monitoring platform. From an ordinary browser your team can collect metrics from networks, servers, virtual machines, cloud services and applications, define flexible triggers and alerts, and build dashboards, graphs and reports on top of a rich library of templates. Built and maintained by cloudimg on a hardened, fully patched Ubuntu 24.04 LTS base, with Zabbix 7.0 LTS served by nginx and PHP 8.3 FPM and a bundled local MariaDB server so the appliance is complete on its own.
The Zabbix database schema and templates are installed and ready, and the bundled agent monitors the appliance itself, so the Zabbix server host shows live data the moment the VM boots. A unique administrator password is generated on the first boot of every VM. The well known default super admin (Admin) is secured before the image ships: its password is rotated per VM and guest access is disabled. Sign in to the web frontend on port 80 with the password from /root/zabbix-credentials.txt, then add hosts, build dashboards and configure triggers and alerts.
The bundled MariaDB listens only on the loopback interface (127.0.0.1:3306) and is never exposed to the network. The Zabbix database lives on its own dedicated managed data disk. An unauthenticated /healthz endpoint is provided for load balancer probes, and the server trapper on port 10051 accepts remote monitored agents when you open it in the NSG. For production, front port 80 with your own domain and TLS.
