Hi Alex,

This sort of thing has been discussed before, for example see 
http://oss.clusterlabs.org/pipermail/pacemaker/2014-August/022418.html

At Gleim, we use an active monitoring approach -- instead of waiting for 
a notification, our monitor polls the cluster regularly. In our case, 
we're using the check_crm nagios plugin available at 
https://github.com/dnsmichi/icinga-plugins/blob/master/scripts/check_crm. It's 
a fairly simple Perl script utilizing crm_mon, so you could probably 
tweak the output to fit something zabbix expects, if there isn't an 
equivalent for zabbix already.

And of course you can configure zabbix to monitor the services running 
on the cluster as well.
