 Description   

I've noticed that LLD doesn't work for hosts running via a proxy until you restart the proxy.

Discovered items are created on server side. Proxy side receives them only at configuration update.

Please check ConfigFrequency option on a proxy.

Comment by Andrew Howell [ 2012 Mar 02 ]

It's not specifically set in my zabbix_proxy.conf but the file indicates a default of 3600. Also my zabbix_server log file has the following log entries every hour.

'Sending configuration data to proxy 'dr1lin026'. Datalen 117789

So I would think this is a bug, not a misconfiguration.

Comment by Andrew Howell [ 2012 Mar 02 ]

Just to clarify, the host that was behind the proxy had been added days earlier, so the proxy had been sent many configuration updates in that time.

Successfully reproduced with latest trunk. Items are not even created from prototype without proxy restart.

Comment by dimir [ 2012 Mar 15 ]

Actually Alexander was right, the proxy requests configuration data once per hour by default. So your items will appear maximum in an hour after you create LDD rule + item prototype.

Try setting

ConfigFrequency=60

in zabbix_proxy.conf , this will make proxy request request configuration data every minute.

Closing it for now. Feel free to reopen if the above mentioned suggestion did not help.
