Zabbix frontend can be linked to one Zabbix server only.

Known Issues / Caveates

Zabbix server/proxy can use different database types, so while relation to database is not added, there is no installed Zabbix server/proxy packages.
We recommend to add a relation between Zabbix agent and Zabbix server/proxy after adding relation Zabbix server/proxy with one of available database types.
The charm Zabbix server/proxy supports only MySQL database.

In case of relation with Zabbix proxy new host will be not added to monitoring. This option is available for relations with Zabbix server only.
