 Description   

Zabbix Server-Proxy Template a little differences exist in Zabbix 4.0. (default value)

Template App Zabbix Proxy <= Here is no "%" in item Units.

  • Zabbix busy vmware collector processes, in %
  • Zabbix vmware cache, % free

Zabbix queue - Update interval is different

  • Template App Zabbix Server : 10m
  • Template App Zabbix Proxy : 1m

It is better to have the same settings.

In addition to this you may want to consider removing commas from item names in all default templates because commas are not supported by the new graph widget.

It seems like fixing the widget to support quoting might be a smarter way forward.

Rich, do you know if it is already requested somewhere?

Comment by richlv [ 2018 Dec 07 ]

No, ZBX-15149 is the only public record on the problem.

ingus.vilnis, comma seems to be perfectly valid symbol in item's name. Doesn't make much sense to remove commas from template items if users can create their own items with commas in the names.

Fixed in development branch svn://svn.zabbix.com/branches/dev/ZBX-15258

Yes yes, comma is valid (kind of). But did you check the point made by my comment? Why is Zabbix providing a template out of the box which is not supported by the new widget?

ingus.vilnis, thank you for your report. We are aware of this issue and will discuss internally what would be appropriate solution.

While we are still on the graph widget and overall consistency topic, web scenario items are also affected.
