Is it possible that during the action "Discovery -> Operation -> Add Host" that you can specify a none DNS value?? Perhaps being able to specify a zabbix agent key value like agent.hostname will work. We currently do not add our domain name "example.com" to our zabbix host entries and during the Discovery process it creates the entry with the full FQDN "server1.example.com". With this we have to manually go into Zabbix and change this value as polling does not occur as we have the "Hostname" value in the agent configuration populated with just the hostname and not the FQDN name. Agent Config Example: Thanks |

Hard to understand is this about network discovery or agents auto-registration ... |

This is part of the Event source: Discovery section where it uses the network discovery to auto create hosts etc... |

This would defently be a handy feature when descovering devices that don't require a dns address, the ability to read an SNMP value or agent value and use that as the hostname would be perfect! Any news if this is in the pipeline? |
