# Monitoring Windows Shadow Copies (VSS) with Zabbix
### Description
This template is designed for monitoring the Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) on Windows servers, using Zabbix Agent and PowerShell scripts. It has been tested with Zabbix versions 5 to 7 LTS and supports monitoring of shadow copy status and creation times.
##
### Items
The template allows tracking of the following parameters:
- **Number of shadow copies** on each disk.
- **Date and time of the oldest** shadow copy.
- **Date and time of the newest** shadow copy.
- **Date and time of the newest** in UNIX format.
### Triggers
- **[{#DISKNAME}] Shadow copies not found**: triggers if the number of shadow copies is zero.
- **[{#DISKNAME}] Last shadow copy older than 72 hours**: triggers if the newest copy is older than 3 days.
##
### Installation
1. **Copy scripts**: Transfer the scripts from the scripts folder to the host where Zabbix Agent is installed.
2. **Configure settings**: Add UserParameter entries to the Zabbix Agent configuration file.
3. **Restart the agent**: Update the agent configuration by restarting the Zabbix Agent.
4. **Import the template**: Upload the 'Template VSS Windows' file to the Zabbix server and attach it to the host.
