This question is likely to vague to get responses other than links to the admin guides. Its VERY broad. The admin guide covers most of these topics. If your having issues doing a specific task, post what your stuck on, and or any errors. You should also try to include what version and linux distro your running on.

Also you should be sure to review the FAQ: docs/DOC-2445

Not to contridict dpetzel, but the new URL for the updated FAQ is here (with a shortcut to how to get better help on the forums via asking smart questions)

I don't know anything about proxmox, but Zenoss can be picky, and I doubt most users are using proxmox to run it (Unless it's a VM host, in which case if you can, run on CENTOS (IMO)) so you might not get a lot of help with things related to the OS.

Finally, there are resources available via the community or zenoss via the paid Enterprise product or Community Consultants and perhaps training...

The ZCA can help.

Well, there really isn't a configuration for recieving SNMP Traps - you just need the device in Zenoss somehow - probably a ping only device if you're only using traps... Turn off any other SNMP Trapsinks on the zenoss server so zentrap can grab the traps, and it pretty much goes then. You set the trapsink on the monitored devices to  be the zenoss  server.

Then you're into the admin guide and event mappings and maybe transforms to make the trap generated events in Zenoss be what you want.
