How to Set Up Mailx and Zabbix Alerts with Email and WeChat Integration

Install and Configure mailx

Install mailx

yum install -y mailx

Edit mailx configuration

vim /etc/mail.rc

<code>set [email protected]   # define sender
set smtp=smtp.163.com      # define SMTP server
set [email protected]
set smtp-auth-password=asdASD123
set smtp-auth=login</code>

Send a test email

echo 'test1'|mail -s "testmail" [email protected]

Create a Zabbix mail alert script

vim /usr/lib/zabbix/alertscripts/mail.sh

This is the default script path; it can be changed in the Zabbix server configuration.

<code>#/bin/bash
to=$1
subject=$(echo $2|tr '\r\n' '\n')
message=$(echo $3|tr '\r\n' '\n')
echo "$message"|mail -s "$subject" $to >>/var/log/mailx.log 2>&1</code>

touch /var/log/mailx.log chown -R zabbix.zabbix /var/log/mailx.log chmod +x /usr/lib/zabbix/alertscripts/mail.sh ./mail.sh [email protected] "Subject" "Content"

Edit Zabbix web UI to configure media

Macro variables are uppercase; see the official Zabbix macro documentation. Email media is also an option and is simpler.

Configure WeChat Alerts

Register Enterprise WeChat

Visit https://work.weixin.qq.com/wework_admin/ to create an account.

Obtain Enterprise ID

Navigate to “My Enterprise” and scroll to the bottom to find the ID.

Get AgentID and Secret

Create a new application under “Apps & Mini Programs”, note the AgentID and Secret.

Configure Script

Clone WeChat alert script from GitHub

<code>git clone https://github.com/X-Mars/Zabbix-Alert-WeChat.git
cp Zabbix-Alert-WeChat/wechat.py /usr/local/zabbix34/alertscripts/
chmod +x wechat.py && chown zabbix:zabbix wechat.py</code>

Install requests library

Install pip first, then install the library.

<code>python get-pip.py</code>

<code>pip install requests</code>

Modify wechat.py

Fill in Corpid, Secret, and AgentID with your Enterprise WeChat information; optionally set tag or department IDs.

Test the script:

<code>python wechat.py 企业微信ID test text
{u'invaliduser': u'', u'errcode': 0, u'errmsg': u'ok'}</code>

Configure Media and Users in Zabbix Web
