Docker compose section

Zabbix Web monitoring stack

See HERE

Multiple compose files on a single network

Example:

  • A running Zabbix monitoring stack with an existing compose file
  • Add a new application from a new compose and connect to the Zabbix API from the existing network

Let's assume that you have your monitoring stack's docker-compose.yml in the monitoring-web-stack directory:

version: '2'

services:
  zabbix-frontend:
    restart: always
    image: zabbix/zabbix-web-nginx-mysql
    environment:
     - DB_SERVER_HOST=someserver
  [...]

When you bring up the compose file, docker will create a dedicated network named monitoring-web-stack_default:

# docker network ls | grep monitoring-web-stack
f02aa860337d        monitoring-web-stack_default   bridge              local

In your application compose file you need to specify this existing network as external and docker will bind containers to it:

version: '2'

services:
  some-application:
    restart: always
    image: yourapplication:latest

# Attach to existing network
networks:
  default:
    external:
      name: monitoring-web-stack_default

Start your new compose and test the network connection from within the application container (a5d95c2cc9a2 in the example), using the same service names you defined in the monitoring stack compose:

# docker exec -it a5d95c2cc9a2 sh
