 Description   

Hi guys.

  1. Im usig triggers with time() and dayofweek() metrics.
  2. I want to test the trigger with "expression constructor"
  3. Can't change time or days at test windows

 

Trigger:

last(xyz/system.hw.serialnumber[xyz])=0 and time()>007000 and time()<090000 and dayofweek()=1-5

 

Problem: Zabbix expression constructor will take this metrics (time and dayofweek) from actual time and date, so if you wanna test midnight trigger you need to realy try it at midnight...with days is same.

ZBX - is a bug tracker for identifying and fixing some issues in Zabbix functionality
The situation, that you described is not a sign of incorrect work of Zabbix, it is by design behavior
If this is a critical problem for you - you can make a feature request for improving the functionality in ZBXNEXT and if a large number of users vote for it, then the development team will definitely take it into consideration for adding or changing the functionality in new versions of Zabbix
