Summary
In this chapter, we set up a fresh Zabbix installation consisting of a database, a server, and an agent daemon, all running on the same machine. We also installed and configured the Zabbix web frontend, based on PHP, to access the database.
We will use the results of this work in all of our future chapters. To see how we can get from a monitored metric to an alert e-mail, we'll go through a simple scenario in the next chapter—think of it as sort of a quick start guide.
