I have been running tests for an eventual deploy to ~350 servers. I imported my hosts, but only a very few have the agent configured right now.
My expectation was that I wouldn't get an insurmountable flood of triggers, but I did. Only a certain type of triggers went off though: ex. "MySQL: Failed to fetch info data (or no data for 30m)" and a similar one for Redis.
Steps to reproduce:
- Add a host that is not connected.
- Add "Template DB MySQL by Zabbix agent 2" without further config to that host
- Wait the time for the "MySQL: Failed to fetch info data (or no data for 30m)" to go off
Result:
Triggers go off when they should not
See screenshot
Expected:
Hosts that are "Not Connected" should not throw triggers
