I will write some useful examples of sql queries for the Zabbix database:
Search for a host by name:
SELECT * FROM hosts WHERE host like '%name%'; SELECT * FROM hosts WHERE name like '%name%';
Find the data items of the specified host:
SELECT * FROM items WHERE hostid = '10105';
Find the history of the values for the specified data item:
SELECT * FROM history WHERE itemid = '24526';
Delete the whole history of the data element until 01.11.2014 (the time is specified in Unix format, converters can be found through the search engine):
DELETE FROM history WHERE itemid = '24526' AND clock < '1414800000';
Delete all data history until 01.11.2014:
DELETE FROM history WHERE clock < '1414800000';
Massively changed the interval and dynamics of changes to the data elements of templates and hosts, I have the following queries (the first identifies the template ID or host, the second changes the intervals):
SELECT * FROM `hosts` WHERE host="Template ICMP Ping"; UPDATE items SET delay=3600 WHERE hostid=10105 AND delay=600; UPDATE items SET trends=180 WHERE hostid=10047 AND trends=365;
