(1) Shouldn't we mention these limitations in https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/3.0/manual/config/items/itemtypes/zabbix_agent ?
martins-v I thought about it a bit. My opinion is that better not. First of all, that would mean pasting the same into three cells (and totalling four places in documentation). If we change this, then four notes to remove. Also in the agent page we do not state if the item is supported on a specific platform at all. So checking 'Items supported by platform' is a bit of a must anyway.
sandis.neilands The counter argument could be that we have platform specifics in Zabbix agent items page when they affect item's behaviour.
To me the items supported by platform page gives "yes"/"no" answer of whether an item is supported on platform at all. The Zabbix agent items page then tells me how the item is supported.
What if we included this limitation in the cmdline notes page? It is already linked from all relevant items. And mention this page in the footnote in items supported by platform page?
martins-v We could... but why? We have this issue in the status of a major bug. Then let's fix it... and we will not have to document it at all 
sandis.neilands It was decided to document this now since this issue was encountered in production environment. Whether there will be a software correction depends on product management. CLOSED.
(2) The notes about cmdline (https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/3.0/manual/appendix/items/proc_mem_num_notes) are Linux specific. This could be emphasized in items description page.
