 Description   

Common source of configuration errors are missing (not compiled in) features in server/proxy binary. Therefore it does not make sense to continue attempts to poll certain type of items or certain hosts and litter log file with error messages.

Similarly there is no point checking Simple checks with keys not supported (neither by Zabbix, nor by loaded modules), Internal checks with invalid keys, Calculated items with broken formulas and stuff like this until configuration update.

Potentially this could be solved similar to how it was done with proxy misconfiguration from server side ZBX-13060.
Currently it is decided not to fix this. Complexity added to solve the issues described in this ticket is not worth what we would gain from it.

WON'T FIX
