1. 环境准备
CentOS 6.4
关闭selinux和iptables
两台虚拟机：一台Server，一台Agent
2. 安装官方yum源
所有服务器都要安装此yum源
rpm -ivh http://repo.zabbix.com/zabbix/2.4/rhel/6/x86_64/zabbix-release-2.4-1.el6.noarch.rpm (32位为i386）
3. 部署Zabbix Server
yum install zabbix-server-mysql zabbix-web-mysql zabbix-agent mysql-server mysql -y
/etc/init.d/mysqld start
mysql -e "create database zabbix character set utf8 collate utf8_bin;"
mysql -e "grant all privileges on zabbix.* to zabbix@localhost identified by 'zabbix';"
cd /usr/share/doc/zabbix-server-mysql-2.4.*/create/
mysql -uroot zabbix < schema.sql
mysql -uroot zabbix < p_w_picpaths.sql
mysql -uroot zabbix < data.sql
sed -i 's/^.*DBPassword=.*$/DBPassword=zabbix/' /etc/zabbix/zabbix_server.conf
service zabbix-server start
service zabbix-agent start
sed -i 's/^.*date.timezone =.*$/date.timezone = Asia\/Shanghai/g' /etc/php.ini
sed -i 's/^.*post_max_size =.*$/post_max_size = 16M/g' /etc/php.ini
sed -i 's/^.*max_execution_time =.*$/max_execution_time = 300/g' /etc/php.ini
sed -i 's/^.*max_input_time =.*$/max_input_time = 300/g' /etc/php.ini
service httpd restart
chkconfig mysqld on
chkconfig zabbix-server on
chkconfig zabbix-agent on
chkconfig httpd on
打开浏览器访问http://server_ip/zabbix/
直接点击Next...
继续点击Next...
点击'Test connection' 后，继续Next
继续Next...
继续Next...
点击'Finish' 完成页面的配置.
通过默认的账号和密码进行登录
Admin/zabbix 注意Admin第一个字母大写
将页面改为中文的方法：
sed -i '/zh_CN/ s/false/true/' /usr/share/zabbix/include/locales.inc.php
/etc/init.d/httpd restart
现在可以看到已经可以选择中文了，上图是已经生效之后的。
启用Zabbix Server自身监控：
按照上图的继续点击，将默认的Zabbix Server自身的监控启用.
图片不能显示中文：
语言切换到中文后，选择任意的图形，不能显示中文..
cd /usr/share/zabbix/fonts
mv graphfont.ttf graphfont.ttf.bak
wget http://down1.chinaunix.net/distfiles/ttf-arphic-uming_0.0.20050501-1.tar.gz
tar xf /root/ttf-arphic-uming_0.0.20050501-1.tar.gz
cp /root/ttf-arphic-uming_0.0.20050501/uming.ttf graphfont.ttf
#不替换 graphfont.ttf的方法
#下载会字体文件 .ttf
#vi /usr/share/zabbix/include/defines.inc.php
#('ZBX_GRAPH_FONT_NAME', 'graphfont'); #将graphfont替换为下载的文件名即可
#('ZBX_FONT_NAME', 'graphfont'); #将graphfont替换为下载的文件名即可

1922:20141126:144903.783 cannot send list of active checks to [127.0.0.1]: host [Zabbix server] not monitored
其中有一个'cannot send list of active checks to ' 这种类型不算错误，后续更新Zabbix Agent(active)会描述这个情况.
4. 部署Zabbix Agent
yum install zabbix-agent zabbix-sender zabbix-get -y
[root@localhost ~]# grep -vE '(^$|^\#)' /etc/zabbix/zabbix_agentd.conf
PidFile=/var/run/zabbix/zabbix_agentd.pid
LogFile=/var/log/zabbix/zabbix_agentd.log
LogFileSize=0
Server=172.16.43.40 #修改为Server的IP，支持多个IP，逗号分隔，使用域名的话，需要支持反向解析
ServerActive=172.16.43.40 #修改为Server的IP，不支持写多个IP
HostnameItem=system.hostname #默认是用Hostname需要手动指定主机名，改为HostnameItem 使用内部key的自动获取方式
Include=/etc/zabbix/zabbix_agentd.d/
/etc/init.d/zabbix-agent start
chkconfig zabbix-agent on

同样，'no active checks on server' 也不是一个错误，后续更新的blog会进行描述.
5. 在Server添加一个主机使用Agent方式进行监控
