| Description |
|
Can be used to convert temperatures from centigrade to Fahrenheit or vice versa and, I suppose, in many other applications. Custom multiplier is not sufficient in this case. We can use our universal "calculator" we use for trigger expressions, calculated item formulas, custom action condition expressions, etc. |

I think it would be better if we can define scripts that are executed on the zabbix server for pre-processing values. In my case i want to convert a IP-address to int to be able to compare it to something else. I now have the conversion on the client side. But in some cases it could be useful to do this server side. I think it's possible to think of 100+1 things u normally can't do. Having user defined scripts could solve them all. But maybe it will go to far. Just me 2 cents. |
