Part 117: Let Zabbix be your lucky lady for lotto numbers

What's up, home? part 117 cover image

Many years ago, maybe around 2017 or 2018, one of my ex-colleagues (Hi, Kevin!) said that I probably would use Zabbix even to come up with the lottery numbers. Back then, just to strike back, I did exactly that, with a small easter egg in work Zabbix containing the lotto numbers. That was a quick bash script feeding the Zabbix item.

Now, let's return to that topic, but use Zabbix Script item type instead. Also, let's take a look at few other details that help in monitoring.
