Overview

Host dashboards are configured on the template level and then are generated for a host, once the template is linked to the host. Widgets of host dashboards can only be copied to host dashboards of the same template. Widgets from global dashboards cannot be copied onto host dashboards.

Host dashboards cannot be configured or directly accessed in the Monitoring → section, which is reserved for global dashboards. The ways to access host dashboards are listed below in this section.

Widgets of the host dashboards cannot be edited.

Note that host dashboards used to be host screens before Zabbix 5.2.

When importing an older template containing screens, the screens will be converted to dashboards preserving the original name and configuration of screen elements (widgets). However, it is not guaranteed that all screen elements will find their place on the converted dashboards, since screens can have a significantly larger width and height comparing to dashboards. In such cases Zabbix will discard the out-of-range screen elements, after trying to accommodate as many screen elements as possible by manipulating the size of newly created widgets.
