 Description   

I've just noticed recently; because i never typically log in as a basic user with only read access
information is limited; if a user wanted to know the IP ADDRESS of a host that went down they
would have to rely on the alert sent VIA email then the web interface.

I believe one of two ways would help fix this would be to either allow

{IPADDRESS} macro in trigger name example "Link to {HOSTNAME} Down @ {IPADDRESS}

"
this would show in the dashboard
or
allow the configuration>host (hosts.php) file browse-able; but limited to only read only with less information [Table Names] could include ( Name | DNS | Ip Address | Status | Availability )

Allowing the info in the inventory section might also make more use of that area..

if this refers to item config form, would be nice to take ZBX-3373, ZBX-3402, ZBX-3466, ZBX-3881 and ZBX-4110 into account

Comment by richlv [ 2012 Jan 20 ]

(1) redesign seems to be fairly nice, but there seems to be no design document at all. current implementation should be documented on the specification wiki and basically describe how it works now (field order, value mappings and applications being sorted alphabetically etc etc)
otherwise it's not really possible for testers/reviewers to know for sure that it works as expected (for example, data type currently being sorted by base)

<alexei> We need design doc! I have so many ideas for this form.

<richlv> just to note down that current spec is seriously lacking - doesn't list field ordering, field visibility depending on contents of other fields etc
<richlv> spec does not conform to what is in the dev branch at all... things like how history clearing buttons are implemented and loooots of other things. not sure how testing or developing can happen without doing lots of redundant work.

<richlv> sorry, this doesn't work. i don't know how should i put it. THIS DOESN'T WORK.
there is no f-ing way anybody can determine whether item config form works according to the specification. oh, wait, let me try it differently - ti doesn't.
how can tests be created ? how could it be tested ? by word of mouth rumours ?

Comment by dimir [ 2012 Jan 25 ]

(2) When doing "mass update" of SNMPv3 (authPriv) item to change it to SNMPv2c the "SNMPv3 auth passphrase" and "SNMPv3 priv passphrase" fields are left in the form after update. The bug is not reproduced with direct item edit, only when doing mass update.

FYI in 1.8 it's reproduced in both cases.

<dimir> CLOSED. Moved to a separate issue ZBX-4588 .

Comment by richlv [ 2012 Jan 26 ]

item filter issues are also being looked at. as such, the following would be nice to consider :
ZBX-1335, ZBX-3330, ZBX-3982, ZBX-4280

lower priority :
ZBX-3304, ZBX-3982

(3) [Usability] I need to scroll page vertically to save an item changes -> unexpected.
My monitor height is 1050 pixels, btw
Is it ok?

<Eduard> Have decided not create new Tab, because all fields are important.. So it's ok.

<alexei> Yes, it is ok. We decided not to introduce any new tabs for now. CLOSED

Comment by Oleksii Zagorskyi [ 2012 Jan 29 ]

At least the ZBX-3373 is not implemented at all. Seems all other linked "duplicates" could/should be reviewed.

(4) Connect as an user having read-write permission to a host

Configuration->Hosts->Items (click on a host having templated items), click on a template item. See errors below the form:

(5) Configuration->Templates, click on template items

You will see list of items of a host, not template. It seems host selection is remembered in item filter.

(7) If the host doesn't have any available interfaces for the selected item type, the interface select element breaks (tested in Firefox). https://support.zabbix.com/secure/attachment/17947/item-interface.png

(8) when selecting some SNMP or IPMI type, the select key button becomes disabled, but the input itself is still editable.

<Eduard> It's ok, for SNMP and IMPI user type key by hands..

<pavels> Oh, OK. CLOSED.

Comment by Alexei Vladishev [ 2012 Jan 31 ]

(9) Configuration->Hosts->Items

Look at the debug information. The amount of API calls, permission checks and unnecessarily data exchange kills performance. It has to be fixed.

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<Vedmak> There is still quite a lot sqls.. ~130 more than in trunk. Maybe we should discuss that problem together.

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<Vedmak> CLOSED

Comment by Pavels Jelisejevs (Inactive) [ 2012 Jan 31 ]

(10) It would be nice to vertically align the custom multiplier checkbox, in firefox it's shifted to the top.

<Eduard> RESOLVED, still not in css at this time..

<pavels> Ok, CLOSED.

Comment by Pavels Jelisejevs (Inactive) [ 2012 Jan 31 ]

(11) Maybe we should group the input fields into several logical groups (e.g. type specific fields, intervals and history, applications) and add a margin between them? The form would be more usable, and it will be clearer, how the fields depend on each other.

<pavels> After some discussion with Eduards and Sasha we've decided not to do that now. CLOSED.

Comment by Alexei Vladishev [ 2012 Jan 31 ]

(12) Applications not sorted in the list of item prototypes "CPU, Availability", must be "Availability, CPU".

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<Vedmak> Sorting is not natural: 1, 12, 2.

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<Vedmak> CLOSED

Comment by Pavels Jelisejevs (Inactive) [ 2012 Jan 31 ]

(13) In configurations.item.edit.php:
1. there are a lot of really long lines, that are hard to read. Remember, that we have a 120 symbol limit;
2. I suggest you move all of the "insert_post_js" code to configuration.item.edit.js.php to avoid mixing PHP and JS.

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<pavels> I don't think that using large ternary operators in function calls is a good idea. I mean blocks like:

$itemFormList->addRow(_('Host'), array(
new CTextBox('hostname', $this->data['hostname'], ZBX_TEXTBOX_STANDARD_SIZE, true),
empty($this->data['itemid'])
? new CButton('btn_host', _('Select'),
"return PopUp('popup.php?dstfrm=".$itemForm->getName().'&dstfld1=hostname&dstfld2=form_hostid'.
"&srctbl=hosts_and_templates&srcfld1=name&srcfld2=hostid&noempty=1&submitParent=1', 450, 450);",
'formlist'
)
: null
));
<Eduard> After some discussion with Pavels we decided not to do this. CLOSED

Comment by Alexei Vladishev [ 2012 Jan 31 ]

(14) Please fix ZBX-3304 in other places as well (list of hosts, somewhere else?) to make it consistent.

<Eduard> RESOLVED also in Hosts and Host inventories.

<alexei> please make 'Filter' preferred action, i.e. mark it with yellow border

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<Vedmak> CLOSED

Comment by Alexei Vladishev [ 2012 Feb 01 ]

(15) Only interfaces matching item type must be displayed. If no interfaces found then empty (or 'none') drop-down should be displayed with red message 'No interface found' on the right side.

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<alexei> it is not correct, the logic must be as follows:

case ITEM_TYPE_ZABBIX:
return INTERFACE_TYPE_AGENT;
case ITEM_TYPE_SNMPv1:
case ITEM_TYPE_SNMPv2c:
case ITEM_TYPE_SNMPv3:
case ITEM_TYPE_SNMPTRAP:
return INTERFACE_TYPE_SNMP;
case ITEM_TYPE_IPMI:
return INTERFACE_TYPE_IPMI;
case ITEM_TYPE_JMX:
return INTERFACE_TYPE_JMX;
case ITEM_TYPE_SIMPLE:
case ITEM_TYPE_EXTERNAL:
case ITEM_TYPE_SSH:
case ITEM_TYPE_TELNET:
return INTERFACE_TYPE_ANY;
default:
return INTERFACE_TYPE_NONE;

<Eduard> RESOLVED"

<pavels> I think the message should read "No interfaceS found". Plus, when we try to submit a form with that message, it still submits some interface ID and the error message reads "Item uses incorrect interface type" instead of "No interface for item".

<Eduard> After discussion with Pavels we decided not to do this. CLOSED

<pavels> Wait, we've decided no to change the "No interface found" message, the part about the error remains. REOPENED.

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<pavels> CLOSED.

Comment by Pavels Jelisejevs (Inactive) [ 2012 Feb 03 ]

(16) Regarding itemTypeInterface() in functions.js. It's not a good idea to duplicate this logic on the client side. I think we should pass the interface mapping rules as an associative array from the PHP side.

<Eduard> RESOLVED, impl. without any array..

<Vedmak> I'm not sure what it was about initially, but "insert_javascript_itemTypeInterface" must be removed from CItemGeneral class And i think Pavel's idea about implementation was that we should not change more than one function/method if we add new interface.

<Eduard> RESOLVED

Successfully tested. Log monitoring is working for files over 2GB on 32-bit systems. Also confirm that this fixes vfs.file.size[] report for files over 2GB (was ZBX_UNSUPPORTED before).

Comment by dimir [ 2012 May 16 ]

(1) This enables general support for files larger than 2GB on Zabbix side (all components), I suggest this be documented as new 2.0 feature.

<Sasha> CLOSED

Comment by Alexander Vladishev [ 2012 May 16 ]

(2) Should be documented DB upgrade patches from 2.0.0rc4 to 2.0.0rc5 in the release notes.

IBM DB2:
ALTER TABLE items ALTER COLUMN lastlogsize SET DATA TYPE bigint
REORG TABLE items

MySQL:
ALTER TABLE items MODIFY lastlogsize bigint unsigned DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL;

Oracle:
ALTER TABLE items MODIFY lastlogsize number(20);

PostgreSQL:
ALTER TABLE items ALTER lastlogsize TYPE numeric(20);

<dimir> While at it, could next info also added?

When upgrading from 2.0.0rc2 to 2.0.0rc3, if proxy is used and proxy uses MySQL:
ALTER TABLE proxy_history MODIFY value longtext NOT NULL;

<Sasha> we supports incremental patches only from version 2.0.0rc4
<Sasha> CLOSED patches will be published in the release notes

Comment by Alexander Vladishev [ 2012 May 16 ]

Available in version pre-2.0.0 r27570.

Comment by dimir [ 2012 May 18 ]

Reopening because of regression. After this fix Zabbix will not compile on Solaris (SPARC) anymore.

Comment by dimir [ 2012 May 18 ]

(3) Disable large file support on 32-bit Solaris.

On a 32-bit Solaris large file support is incompatible with procfs and swapctl. There is a way to do that though by using transitional compilation environment but this has to wait at least till 2.0 is out. See lfcompile64(5) for details.

Comment by richlv [ 2012 Mar 24 ]

any more information on what exactly was improved regarding the processing of the triggers ?

<zalex> yes, the issue cannot be closed without the answer to this question

<dimir> Basically there are 2 improvements:

  • trigger functions are fetched from cache instead of db when handling trigger expressions
  • (which also results in) no trigger error when expression is changed until cache is updated

Am I right, sasha?

<Sasha> You are absolutely right!

Successfully tested! Please review my small style fixes in r26455.

Comment by dimir [ 2012 Mar 28 ]

(1) Wait, there is one issue with trigger update but need to collect more information.

<dimir> So if the trigger status is PROBLEM and we update the trigger after that we will not get recovery message when trigger goes to OK state. I guess this is by design. CLOSED

Comment by richlv [ 2011 Feb 02 ]

also see ZBXNEXT-616 and ZBXNEXT-294
additional keyword : inventory

Comment by Alexander Vladishev [ 2011 Feb 02 ]

1. Database changes:

Table 'items':

FIELD |profile_link |t_integer |'0' |NOT NULL |ZBX_SYNC

profile_link: pointer to one of profile fields, 1-N. 0 - not used for profiles. Numbering will match field number in table structure.

Table 'hosts_profiles':

FIELD |profile_mode |t_integer |'0' |NOT NULL |ZBX_SYNC

profile_mode: 0 - manual, 1 - automatic

2. Configuration of item form will be extended to have an optional selection of a host profile field. If set, the item value will overwrite information stored in the corresponding profile field (for example, Device type, MAC Address, etc)

The selection will be available for items of any type except of value type 'Log'.

It will look like:

Use in profiles [X]
Update profile field [<here is a drop-down of all profile fields>]

This selection will be located before Description field

3. Template linkage should be extended to verify that there are no two items pointing to the same profile field.

4. It should be possible to change profile linkage even if an item is linked to a template.

5. Host profile may have the following states: Disabled - no host profile information available, Manual - manually entered host profile information, Automatic - linked fields are updated automatically, other fields can be manually modified.

The profile state is configurable on per host level as it is in 1.8.x

6. Host mass-updated will be extended to support setting of different profile modes (manual, automatic, disabled).

7. Not supported and Disabled items are treated as a normal items, i.e. the linkage will be preserved.

8. Item prototypes are not affected

9. If a host profile in Automatic mode and a profile field has a linkage, the profile field should be disabled, show actual value and display information about linked item (as a item name linked to configuration of the item).

----------------------------------
TODO later:

N. New report will be introduced to display inventory information and number of hosts grouped by one of inventory fields.For example, grouping by OS: Linux: 450 hosts, Windows: 5 hosts.

The existing Inventory report will be extended to support this. Additional drop-down "Aggregate by" will be introduced to select a host profile field for grouping purposes. Only fields having varchar() type can be used due to performance considerations. By default, drop-down selection is set to <no aggregation>.
---------------------------------- will be introduced later

Comment by richlv [ 2011 Feb 03 ]

maybe "Update profile field" ? just "Update profile" might be confusing

additional data, supported by the linux agent, will be available as items, right ?

Comment by Gergely Czuczy [ 2011 May 03 ]

If i may suggest, it'd be very nice, if this profile filling could work from SNMP OIDs as well.

Some information also available over snmp, a few for an example:
sysDescr.0
sysName.0
sysLocation.0
sysContact.0

And a few vendor-specific extensions, like cisco exports the running image's name, which is the software version practically.

Would be very nice if some of the profile could be populated using SNMP information.

Comment by richlv [ 2011 May 03 ]

i believe that any item would be able to be set as a source for profile field data, which does not exclude snmp items

 Description   

Zabbix should support automatic placing of discovered devices or all devices of a given group on a map. It would simplify maintenance very much.



 Comments   
Comment by Alexander Vladishev [ 2011 Feb 24 ]

It will be implemented the following way:

1) ''Host group' element will support new option "Show" having two possible values: 'Host group' and 'Host group elements'

In case if 'Host group elements' option selected:

2) Host Group is a map region of NxM pixels or size of an entire map

3) All hosts of the selected host group will be displayed in the defined region.

Host Group label will be used for each individual host displayed in the region. No border is displayed for the region, no region-level labels supported.

4) Initially the only supported placing algorithm will be 'left->right, top->bottom' evenly aligned. Hosts must not intersect if possible.

Map grid alignment is ignored.

5) All displayed hosts will use icons defined for the Host Group

6) Host Group element can be linked to another map element. In this case the link will be automatically displayed for all elements of the Host Group.

Host Group Region to Host Group Region linkage is allowed and will be displayed as a line connecting centers of these regions. It might be improved later on.

7) New fields should be added to table 'sysmaps_elements':

FIELD |elementsubtype |t_integer |'0' |NOT NULL |ZBX_SYNC
FIELD |areatype |t_integer |'0' |NOT NULL |ZBX_SYNC
FIELD |width |t_integer |'200' |NOT NULL |ZBX_SYNC
FIELD |height |t_integer |'200' |NOT NULL |ZBX_SYNC
FIELD |viewtype |t_integer |'0' |NOT NULL |ZBX_SYNC

elementsubtype: 0 - host group, 1 - host group elements
areatype: 0 - fit to map, 1 - custom size
viewtype: 0 - 'left->right, top->bottom, evenly aligned'

8) API must be updated to support new element type as well as the new fields. Affected API methods: map.create, map.update, map.addElement, map.updateElement and map.get.

9) Map XML import/export must be updated accordingly

Requirements update:

  • Map areas are aligned by same algorithm as icons (center align)
  • between two maps, only one link is drawn, disregarding host group hosts
  • between element and area, link is drawn for each host group host
  • in configuration, area contains only one host group icon
  • in configuration, status messages are not shown and macros are not calculated
  • in configuration, only iconid_off is used to represent elements
  • when select triggers for link, first popup is removed
Comment by richlv [ 2011 Feb 24 ]

when editing a map, how will such an element be displayed ?
how will this element be movable around the map by dragging (as in, which areas will start drag action) ?
what happens if two hostgroup areas overlap ?
how will dimensions of such an element be specified (only x/y coordinates or draggable on the map) ?
will object x/y coordinate represent left topmost corner of the area ?
what happens if all objects don't fit in the chosen area ?
what spacing will be used for individual hosts ? will it be taken from the saved map grid or will it be possible to specify per hostgroup area ?

Comment by Alexander Vladishev [ 2011 Feb 25 ]

Rich, the logic will be very similar to processing of images:

>when editing a map, how will such an element be displayed ?
>what spacing will be used for individual hosts ? will it be taken from the saved map grid or will it be possible to specify per hostgroup area ?

Evenly distributed, there is a sketch.

>how will this element be movable around the map by dragging (as in, which areas will start drag action) ?
>what happens if two hostgroup areas overlap ?
>how will dimensions of such an element be specified (only x/y coordinates or draggable on the map) ?
>will object x/y coordinate represent left topmost corner of the area ?
>what happens if all objects don't fit in the chosen area ?

Same logic as for element type 'Image'. No processing of complex cases, it is up-to an user to deal with overlapping.

<Richlv> hmm. is there some special logic for auto-aligning images ? or would host elements then just start overlapping if they don't fit neatly in the area ?

What is the purpose of API wrapper? Will it affect external client applications?

Comment by Alexei Vladishev [ 2011 Jan 26 ]

Currently there is no single function or a method to call API from PHP code. Now if you need to add an user, you call something like user.add() instead of doing apiCall('user.add'). The API wrapper allows us to call a single function instead of working with different objects directly.

Another advantage of the API wrapper is better error processing and (theoretically) much cleaner code.

Comment by richlv [ 2011 Jan 26 ]

so something similar to andrew farley's php zabbix api class (http://andrewfarley.com/php/zabbix-1-8-api-php-class-v1-0) ?

Comment by Alexei Vladishev [ 2011 Jan 26 ]

Rich, absolutely not. The wrapper is an abstraction layer above all PHP classes. That's the point. The front-end will work with the API in a similar way as any other application based on the API. The wrapper can also be configured (it won't be supported from the very beginning) to forward all API calls to a different physical server if required. It's another nice step to separate GUI from the API.

Comment by Konstantin Buravcov (Inactive) [ 2011 Feb 03 ]

As far as I understand, what was eventually implemented is different than what Alexei V. had in mind initially. What was the rationale for it?

Comment by Alexey Fukalov [ 2011 Mar 03 ]

Api acces option was removed because we are tending to make frontend communicate with DB only using api. So now frontend api calls are mostly same as usual api calls via jsonrpc.

That´s cool Especially in hosting-environments it is not always assured that reverse dns is available - you should use fqdn-hostname as fallback. Ideally, this behavior should be configurable....





[ZBXNEXT-512] unknown events should be redesigned Created: 2010 Sep 17  Updated: 2017 May 31  Resolved: 2010 Nov 03

 Description   

The problems we currently have with UNKNOWN events:

(1) Complicated logic for acknowledges. For instance, if we have PROBLEM -> UNKNOWN -> PROBLEM -> UNKNOWN -> PROBLEM, then acknowledging one PROBLEM event has to copy acknowledges to other PROBLEM events as well.

(2) PROBLEM -> UNKNOWN -> PROBLEM is essentially a single PROBLEM.

(3) When deciding if we need to add an event or not, we have to look into "events" table which slows down processing.

(4) Complicated logic for calculating durations in GUI.

(5) UNKNOWN events can mean different things that cannot be distinguished between. For instance: a trigger has just been created, one of the items became unsupported, trigger cannot be evaluated, a server has just been restarted.

(6) UNKNOWN events hide the previous meaningful status: if a trigger was in the PROBLEM state before becoming UNKNOWN, then we have to look for the PROBLEM state manually.

Comment by Oleksii Zagorskyi [ 2010 Sep 17 ]

Regarding the transfer all triggers status to UNKNOWN when you restart the zabbix_server (5).
For example I have to sometimes restart zabbix_server.
For example I have a Item with key "eventlog[System,,,,888]". Data for this Item may come once in six months (real).
I would like to see a Trigger for this Item in the state of OK, but not UNKNOWN during these six months.
This is true for any historical data that do not come regularly, but sometimes.
What do you say?
p.s. I do not want to use the function "nodata"

Comment by Aleksandrs Saveljevs [ 2010 Sep 17 ]

After the new design is implemented, users in the GUI will only see OK and PROBLEM events. If something is wrong with the trigger (everything that would cause a generation of UNKNOWN events in the current design), then something like a "?" mark will be shown next to the trigger value: e.g., "OK". So after restarting zabbix_server you will see "OK" rather than UNKNOWN.

Alexander, I was testing a nano-second and I'm starting to like it.
Can you also compile agent for windows for testing? I want to hurry up to test it.

Comment by Alexander Vladishev [ 2010 Jul 30 ]

Windows agents is available in svn://svn.zabbix.com/branches/dev/zbxnext-457 branch.

Comment by Oleksii Zagorskyi [ 2010 Jul 30 ]

Bug founded for windows agent. Windows not like nanoseconds IMHO
i attached text file for better view

Comment by Aleksandrs Saveljevs [ 2010 Jul 30 ]

Can we add some dummy nanoseconds if the clock+ns pairs turn out to be identical? In the attachment above, if we are about to send several items with clock=1280483969 and ns=711000000, can we change the second ns to 711000001, etc.? We will not get real nanosecond precision anyway.

Comment by Alexei Vladishev [ 2010 Jul 30 ]

Good point!

Comment by Oleksii Zagorskyi [ 2010 Jul 30 ]

FreeBSD8.0 also not get REAL nanosecond (maybe is normally - i don't now).
Zabbix server calculated only MICROsecond !!!
If i send with zabbix_sender (not this 457) simple data server write to db 'ns':
147491000
186395000
166976000
186594000
395702000
995246000
474586000
Last three digits - always ZERO.
It's just simply information - not bug.

Comment by Alexei Vladishev [ 2010 Jul 30 ]

Note that not all platforms support nanoseconds. It is a platform specific feature.

Comment by Alexander Vladishev [ 2010 Jul 30 ]

Added support nanoseconds for BSD and Linux platforms. Windows later.

Comment by Alexander Vladishev [ 2010 Jul 30 ]

r13724 - added support of nanoseconds under Windows.

Comment by Oleksii Zagorskyi [ 2010 Jul 31 ]

Tested. Now it seems everything is normal - windows agent generates the 'ns' of 9 digits. FreeBSD 8.0 also - 9 digits.
But he wanted to draw attention - the old agent (not this ZBXNEXT-457) sends the data without the 'ns' and in this case, the zabbix server does not compute the 'ns' and always write ZERO into database 'ns' value. End problem in result as in my previous example.
I think need to support compatibility with older agents in this regard.

Comment by Alexander Vladishev [ 2010 Aug 02 ]

Added support of nanoseconds in ver. pre2.0 r13742.

Comment by Oleksii Zagorskyi [ 2012 Jan 29 ]

Just for record: available in first alpha 1.9.0

Comment by Oleksii Zagorskyi [ 2023 Feb 28 ]

Just an update after ... 11 years

Now zabbix server generates nanoseconds consequently with step just 1, not 9 digits as before.
So, when sending data by zabbix_sender with timestamps and it's the same for a few values of an item key, nanoseconds will be 1 byte values "0" ..... "N".

If send the same data again, it will generate SQL errors, which is expected in zabbix 6.0 due to primary keys (itemid-clock-ns):

227944:20230228:162907.374 [Z3008] query failed due to primary key constraint: [1062] Duplicate entry '42741-1677593860-1' for key 'history_str.PRIMARY'

227944:20230228:162907.375 skipped 1 duplicates

<sasha> This is because of the unique primary keys added in scope of ZBXNEXT-6921. Such history values will be re-saved with an incremented "ns" field value.

 

<zalex_ua> That's right and that's ok. I left the comment as just a note, it might help in future. I had a case where such SQL errors have been logged on a production installation, so we figured out that the same data with timestamps has been sent a few times by mistake.

 Description   

With the current protocol, when a server requests a value for a particular item, passive agent is expected to send a raw value in return. That is, if the result value is "abcdef", the agent will only put "abcdef" into the socket and nothing else (not even protocol headers). If the server does not get anything from the agent (which is also the case with an empty string), it assumes the agent dropped connection.



 Comments   
Comment by Aleksandrs Saveljevs [ 2011 May 09 ]

One of the possible solutions is to make the agent (always or only in case of empty string) send Zabbix protocol headers. It will be understood by older servers, proxies, and zabbix_get.

Another possible solution is to introduce a special return value, say, ZBX_EMPTY, in addition to ZBX_NOTSUPPORTED and ZBX_ERROR.

The first solution seems to be more preferred, because someday we will have to introduce Zabbix protocol headers into the passive agent protocol anyway.

Comment by richlv [ 2011 May 09 ]

(7) [Documentation]
Here and in the documentation nowhere mentioned that ONLY text items (types of information: Character, Log, Text) are allowed to receive empty value.
I think that it must be mentioned at appropriate documentation page(s)

Some phrases like:
"All items (including user parameters and external checks) can return also only whitespace, setting the return value to an empty string"
sounds not very good regarding on fact that actually NOT all items.

Comment by Matteo Cerutti [ 2012 Jul 07 ]

I upgraded zabbix to 2.0.1 but I missed to see this feature which actually broke part of my production monitoring. Is it possible to have the old behavior back by an option in zabbix agent config? Otherwise I will have to keep the old agent on the machines or keep patching the new one.

Thanks.

Comment by Matteo Cerutti [ 2012 Jul 07 ]

For who is interested in reverting this behavior for UserParameters, just change under src/libs/zbxsysinfo/sysinfo.c line94 from EXECUTE_USER_PARAMETER& to EXECUTE_STR&

I think Zabbix Agent should be a bit smarter when handling scripts in UserParameters. I like the fact the you can return empty strings and I see applications where I could take advantage of this feature. But if one doesn't want to report any data because none is available and simply exit the code without any data to stdout, I would expect Zabbix to throw an ZBX_NOTSUPPORTED error.

The reason why I need the old behavior is that I rely on the fact that some plugins cannot provide certain information at a certain time. Because of some logic in the triggers I cannot afford to have an empty item and I'm happy to retain the last valid data received for the item until the information is available again and the items get updated.

I think the best solution is for Zabbix Agent to handle the exit code for the scripts executed via the UserParameters. I guess that if one exit -1, Zabbix could throw the ZBX_NOTSUPPORTED.

Thank you for your understanding.

Keep up the good work!

Comment by Matteo Cerutti [ 2012 Jul 09 ]

There's also another big change that broke my monitoring.. which is how the MACROS are passed to the zabbix agent. I had a few macros which contained "" since Zabbix would not allow me to have an empty macros.

proc.num[{$APP_NAME},{$APP_USER},,{$APP_FILTER}]

when $APP_FILTER is "", it's passed to the agent as \"\" and since the command line does not contain that it will always report a count of 0 processes.

The old zabbix-agentd would not behave like this.

As a result, I cannot re-define macros as empty in a link of templates.

  • add support of {ITEM.DESCRIPTION<1-9>}
  • GUI form for items should be changed (Description -> Name)
  • GUI item mass updated should be changed as well (add support for the new Description field)

Re-naming of other table fields is out of scope.

(1) something to pay attention to : when attempting to create a discovery rule w/o name error message says :

Incorrect value for field "description".

the field is named "Name"

 Description   

With 1.8, several configuration paramerters have some effect on shmmax setintgs. sysctl tuning isn't somethi8ng i do often and usually with some guidance. For both server and proxy under 1.8.2, i've had to make adjustments in order to make the component run, either in server.conf or sysctl. However, there is no guidance in the documentation to assist in understanding how configuration options impact on system resources and performance and how to tune them optimally.

is duplicated by ZBX-2699 Web scenarios for a 'proxied' host ar... Closed

 Description   

It will be greate if "Zabbix proxy" can run web scenarios like Zabbix master server and we can centraly manage/report data from all zabbix proxy servers! Right now only way to monitor web pages in different subnets are nodes or standalone servers.



 Comments   
Comment by Tom Duijf (xs-) [ 2010 Oct 25 ]

Any progress on this one?

Excerpt from my 'duplicate' issue;

---------8<----------------
Logically, i'd say that if a host is configured to be monitored by a proxy, all tests should be performed by / through this proxy (LDAP, simple, agent, snmp, web, etc).

The reason i am filing this as a bug: proxies can be compiled with CURL support (mine are), but this is not used as far as i can see. I checked the documentation on web scenarios and proxies but cannot find anything which confirms or rejects this assumption.
---------8<----------------
As most of the configuration regarding items is already synced between node and proxy, i assume that most/all information to do this, is already available?

Comment by Sean Boran [ 2014 Jun 30 ]

I'm using 2.2.2 and can do webchecks via http proxy(this was added in 2.2 I believe?).
However, I would like to do web checks via a "zabbix proxy", not a http proxy.
i.e. a group of monitored hosts have their zabbix agent items measured via a zabbix proxy, and the idea would be to monitor the web interfaces also via that same zabbix proxy.

Is this somehow possible?

 Description   

Currently Zabbix supports execution of user scripts (defined in WEB GUI) on Zabbix Server or IPMI only. Also it would be nice to have an option for execution of the scripts on monitored hosts by Zabbix agents.



 Comments   
Comment by Alexander Vladishev [ 2011 Feb 24 ]

The following changes must be implemented:

1) Database changes for table 'scripts', new fields must be added:

FIELD |type |t_integer |'0' |NOT NULL |ZBX_SYNC
FIELD |execute_on |t_integer |'1' |NOT NULL |ZBX_SYNC

type: 0 - script, 1 - IPMI
execute_on (script only): 0 - execute on agent, 1 - execute on Zabbix server

2) User script configuration form must be modified according to provided sketch.

3) Database patch for converting existing IPMI commands to new DB structure

4) Server side must be modified to support execution of scripts by Zabbix agents.

5) Commands executed by Zabbix Agents will be based on system.run[], which can be enabled or disabled by EnableRemoteCommands

6) Server must validate Host Group defined for a Script. If a host is not in the specified host group, the command will not be executed on the host.

7) API methods script.get, script.create and script.update will be updated to support new fields 'type' and 'execute_on'.

Comment by richlv [ 2011 Feb 24 ]

does 6 mean ability to specify single group only or multiple groups ?

Comment by Alexander Vladishev [ 2011 Feb 24 ]

The following changes must be implemented:

1) Database changes for tables opcommand_hst and opcommand_grp. New fields:

FIELD |type |t_integer |'0' |NOT NULL |ZBX_SYNC
FIELD |scriptid |t_id | |NULL |ZBX_SYNC |3|scripts | |RESTRICT
FIELD |execute_on |t_integer |'0' |NOT NULL |ZBX_SYNC
FIELD |port |t_varchar(64) |'' |NOT NULL |ZBX_SYNC
FIELD |authtype |t_integer |'0' |NOT NULL |ZBX_SYNC
FIELD |username |t_varchar(64) |'' |NOT NULL |ZBX_SYNC
FIELD |password |t_varchar(64) |'' |NOT NULL |ZBX_SYNC
FIELD |publickey |t_varchar(64) |'' |NOT NULL |ZBX_SYNC
FIELD |privatekey |t_varchar(64) |'' |NOT NULL |ZBX_SYNC

type: 0 - script, 1 - IPMI, 2 - SSH, 3 - Telnet, 4 - user script
execute_on: 0 - execute on agent, 1 - execute on Zabbix server

During development process, we decided to change schema requirements:
All new fields are moved to opcommand table leaving opcommand_hst and opcommand_grp only with operation id and hostid/groupid.

other fields have same definition as for table 'items'

2) User script cannot be removed if used for actions. A clear error message should be given.

3) Action permissions must take into account user scripts.If no RW permissions for a user script, the action is not accessible in the GUI.

4) Selection of user scripts in action form should respect permissions.

Can be a security issue if a script is for execution on RW hosts.

5) Action form must be modified according to provided sketch.

6) Database patch for converting existing IPMI commands to new DB structure

7) For Telnet and SSH checks username, password are used for authentication purposes. For SSH authtype, publickey, privatekey can be used as well.

8) Username, password,publickey, privatekey must support user macros. The macros are based on the target host.

9) Server side must be modified to support new command types.

10) Commands executed by Zabbix Agents will be based on system.run[], which can be enabled or disabled by EnableRemoteCommands

11) Server must validate Host Groups defined for a Script. If a host is not in the specified host group, the command will not be executed on the host.

Comment by Alexander Vladishev [ 2011 Feb 25 ]

12) API methods action.get, action.create and action.update will be extended to support new opcommand_hst/opcommand_grp fields.

database changes have not been implemented according to the specification (which in this case probably means that specification was never updated as it was changed during the development...)

 Description   

Due to the ability to set the "hostname" via Hostname or HostnameItem the actual value of an agent's hostname can be ambiguous.

It would be useful to have ability to know current value (defined for example by Hostname=dummy or by HostnameItem=system.run[echo dummy-dummy]) of internal "zabbix hostname" (used to perform active checks) using passive a check.

So, it's an ask to implement new feature - add new key like "agent.hostname"

This would help for troubleshooting when setting up active checks for new monitored hosts.

Now, the "save" action to download a file it's not intuitively clear, IMO.

On 3rd step buttons are misplaced in Chrome, see "setup_1.png".
In Firefox first slide buttons are misaligned too.

<zalex> I see the same to 1st step in Opera.

On 4th step the "Database type" drop-down contains only MySQL and PostgreSQL.
Is this ok?

<richlv> it should depend on the db support that is available in your php installation - you should see only supported types.
we could make an improvement and show all types, but the unavailable ones would be disabled in the dropdown (couldn't be chosen)

<zalex> Yes, after installation php5-sqlite package, SQLite3 appeared in that drop-down. Thanks.
I'm not sure is it worth to "coding" for this improvement
Feel free to close this comment. But probably would be better to add a small note here (step 4):

On requirements step:
remove total Fail/Ok
add scroll for requirements
retry button is not scrollable

Remove second step.

On first step image instead of text.

Increase version font size to 16 and remove "v".

Add copyright text with link to license to footer.

Change first step name from "Introduction" to "Welcome".

i'd suggest for the image on the 1st step not to have any text on it, and it should take ~ 2/3 of the area, leaving the rest for normal text

Comment by Pavels Jelisejevs (Inactive) [ 2012 May 07 ]

(11) I've reached the step where the configuration file is created, but it couldn't be created, due to the lack of permissions. That's ok, but it also displays a "Config file DB server is not equal to wizard input." error above. What in the world does that mean?

Btw: "Configuration file "/opt/lampp/htdocs/zabbix/trunk/frontends/php/conf/zabbix.conf.php" created: Fail" could probably be replaced with something more human. Like "Could not create the configuration file".

<Toms> Changed according to (1)

<pavels> What about the weird error message?

<Toms> Looks OK for me. I think these kind of things should be discussed with Rich.

<Vedmak> About error message, you probably tried to install Zabbix with existing configuration file, but as setup didn't have permissions to write it, you got situation where you have old config file which differ with values you entered during setup, so it tells you that "DB server" differs.

<pavels> That is should just say "Cannot overwrite the current configuration file" or something. The current message is extremely unclear.

<pavels> After some discussion we've decided to remove that message, and to add a message if the configuration file exists. Something like "The current configuration file will be overwritten". It should also be highlighted somehow, maybe bold?

<Toms> Will be improved in ZBX-4953

Have one element in row, edit it, move it to another row, try to delete now empty row, alert appears with warning that row is not empty.
Probably that caused because element moving is done with ajax, but alerts are attached on page refresh.

Comment by Alexey Fukalov [ 2012 Mar 01 ]

(3) [GUI]
Now rowspan and colspan cannot be 0, but it was allowed before, so now it show errors when update element on old screens. Maybe db patch should be added.

also even if we set rowspan/colspan to 1, but then move element to another empty cell, they are set to 0.

<Eduard> RESOLVED, Reverted validation on rowspan and colspan.. allow 0 values.

<richlv> dev branch rev 25776. attempting to save screen element with 0/0 colspans still fails :

Warning. Incorrect value for field "colspan".
Warning. Incorrect value for field "rowspan".

also the mentioned reseting of span from 1 to 0 is still there

(9) adding history of events seems to break screen configuration.
a) it is not possible to drag any cell contents anymore;
b) other elements (in this case, graphs) do not appear at all

see the screenshot. while event history element is being edited (thus history itself is not visible), elements can be seen and dragged.
when history is visible, other elements disappear and history or empty cells can't be dragged anymore

(3) in graph elements, colour codes now use lowercase (uppercase everywhere else and before)
this seems to happen only when adding new items, modifying colour sets them to uppercase again

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<richlv> CLOSED

Comment by richlv [ 2012 Apr 04 ]

(4) apparently, new graph elements now use randomised colour.
4.1. this isn't documented anywhere;
4.2. sometimes, this can generate broken colour code, for example, i got : e0498

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<richlv> totally broken colours aren't generated anymore, but some quick colour choosing algorithm description would be still needed.
additional idea... if the generated colour matches "graphcolor", maybe we can skip that and generate next colour ?

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<richlv> i meant some description here that we could later adapt for the zabbix manual

<richlv> i believe https://zabbix.org/wiki/Docs/specs/ZBXNEXT-908 is a good place to describe the algo

<Eduard> RESOLVED

Comment by richlv [ 2012 Apr 04 ]

(5) open a graph, save it (without changing anything).
we do update query with all fields in the graphs table. even worse, we delete all graph items, then create them one by one, doing select from ids/update ids for every one of them.
5.1. if possible, we shouldn't do update in this case;
5.2. we shouldn't delete all items & recreate them;
5.3. when creating items (for a new graph, for example), maybe it's possible to increase ids only once and insert all graph items in one go ?

<Eduards> 5.2 - It's hard to simple resolve because in graph item array we can receive NEW items and DELETED items.. so easy way is delete and recreate all ))
We can register new ZBXNEXT but it's is so global and so big work..

<richlv> for anything that won't be fixed here, please, create new issues (although they should be ZBX, not ZBXNEXT )

<richlv> won't be fixed here, split out as ZBX-4861 - CLOSED

Comment by richlv [ 2012 Apr 04 ]

(6) currently it is possible to add all kind of mixed items from templates and hosts to a single custom graph.
same limits as before should be returned - only items from a single template or from any number of hosts.

or, to put it otherwise, if the first item to be added to a graph is from from a template, subsequent items can only be added from the same template (group & host dropdowns are disabled and provide a helpful tooltip)
if the first item is added from a host, further item adding should not display templates (and their items) when adding more graph items

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<Vedmak> now i cannot change item, "Critical error. Incorrect value "host_templateid" for "srcfld3" field." in opened popup. And still can create graphs with mixed items.

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<Vedmak> items from mixed sources can be added by updating already added items.

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<Vedmak> it is still possible
Open new graph form, add template item, click save, get error that name is missing for graph, now you can add host items.

Also, when graph created with lld created items, these items cannot be updated error in popup.

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<Vedmak> problem with lld created items still exists.

Also, open new graph form, add template item, click save, get empty name error, remove that item, try to add another, only items from template can be added.

Also, if for axis item we selected host item, we can add template items after that.

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<Vedmak> CLSOED

(7) it is possible to add an item twice. this was not possible in 1.8

set percentile to "123abc123", try to save the graph - percentile is changed to 123.

it should always stay the same, never cleared

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<richlv> for numbers, .00 is added - but let's assume that's ok, CLOSED

Comment by richlv [ 2012 Apr 11 ]

(18) maybe we should limit percentile field lengths to 5 characters ? that should allow entering strings like :
100.00
99.957

more precision here might not be necessary. api also should limit percentile values to 5 chars, though

<Eduard> RESOLVED, precision maxlenght set to 6 to support "100.00" value.

<richlv> ah, i can't count
but entering "-444" and trying to save changes it to "-444.00", which is 7 characters
maybe .00 should be added only if the number is considered to be valid ?

<Eduard> Decided not to fix.

<richlv> frontend part closed (fix would complicate things a bit too much and it's a really minor problem), but reviewer should verify the api part as well

<Vedmak> There are no API validation for such things, i think we won't implement it in this issue.. CLOSED

Comment by richlv [ 2011 Nov 15 ]

(1) try to create an application with the same name :

Application [z] already exists

square brackets should be changed to doublequotes, trailing dot is missing

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<richlv> CLOSED

Comment by richlv [ 2011 Nov 15 ]

(2) edit a list of applications on a host with some applications coming from a template. click on template name - this goes to the application list for that template. edit an application here, change it's name, save.
we now have a list of applications on some host (sometimes the host we edited before, sometimes totally different host)

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<richlv> what about committing ?

Comment by Igor Danoshaites (Inactive) [ 2011 Nov 15 ]

<Igor>
(1) I think that we should use the same operation names in the drop-down on the left side of the screen and in the confirmation messages for these operations.

For example, in the drop-down is "Activate selected hosts", but in the confirmation dialog box is "Enable selected hosts groups ?".
Think that we can use "Activate selected hosts" for both of them.

<Igor> CLOSED, now we are using "Activate selected" message.

(2) In the confirmation dialog box should be "Disable selected hosts" instead of "Disable selected host groups".

<richlv> but we don't have any hosts selected
the best would probably be "Disable hosts in the selected host groups" or something like that, but that's a bit too long...

<igor> Yes, we do not have any hosts selected, only hosts groups, but host groups can not be disabled. Yes, second variant is too long.

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<Igor> CLOSED, now in the confirmation dialog box we are using message "Disable hosts in the selected host groups".

Comment by Igor Danoshaites (Inactive) [ 2011 Nov 16 ]

(3) When using ZBXNEXT-906 dev branch, in the Administration->Users report after click on the user group name (or on user name) appears the following errors (this error only appears when using Mysql DB, when using PostgreSql this error is not reproducible) :

Error in query [SELECT n.nodeid AS nodeid,n.name AS node_name,g.*,0AS permission FROM groups g LEFT JOIN nodes n ON (g.groupid div 100000000000000)=n.nodeid WHERE g.groupid BETWEEN 000000000000000 AND 099999999999999 ORDER BY n.name,g.name] [Unknown column '0AS' in 'field list']
mysql_fetch_assoc() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given [include\db.inc.php:572]
mysql_free_result() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given [include\db.inc.php:573]

But in trunk branch the same problem is not reproducible. Something wrong with this dev branch (Unknown column '0AS') ?

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<Igor> CLOSED

Comment by Igor Danoshaites (Inactive) [ 2011 Nov 16 ]

(4) Maybe it is better to replace message "Group added" (that appears in the info bar after adding new host group or after cloning existing host group) with " "X" Group added", where "X" is name of the added host group ?

<Eduard> Decided not to do

<Igor> CLOSED, this behaviour is the same when creating (adding) new host.

Comment by Aleksandrs Saveljevs [ 2011 Nov 23 ]

(5) Some messages are not translated, some are split into several parts:

$ grepphp incorrect.user.data
./frontends/php/include/perm.inc.php: fatal_error('Incorrect user data in "get_accessible_hosts_by_user".');
./frontends/php/include/perm.inc.php: fatal_error(_('Incorrect user data in').SPACE.'"get_accessible_groups_by_user"');

<asaveljevs> File services_form.php is not present in trunk and should have been deleted in development branch. However, the file is still present in the branch. That means it will be added to trunk when the branch is reintegrated.

 Description   

i am editing the items of a template, and i get a navigation bar like this:

Templates list Applications (0) Triggers (28) Graphs (10) Template: Template_xxx_Linux

whatever category (items/triggers/..) i edit, this display changes. i never have a link to modify the template itself (like template name) from there.

i'd suggest having a fixed line there, with elements in fixed order, just current view being no link and bold or smth.

also the page titel "Configuration of items" could mention the context like "configuration of items of Template_Linux"



 Comments   
Comment by richlv [ 2010 Mar 31 ]

note that displayed items are affected by the filter and subfilter, thus "configuration of items of Template_Linux" might not be feasible - and would be visible in the row header and filter itself already

Comment by Marc [ 2013 Dec 22 ]

Isn't it already implemented?

Comment by richlv [ 2014 Jan 13 ]

this is available now, but to close this issue we should find out which exact version offered this functionality

Please make the graphs legend optional, cause when you have a graph with lot of items the legend takes lot of vertical estate and makes screens less usable when you just want to have a quick look.

Thanks.

Comment by Cal Sawyer [ 2009 Sep 10 ]

To add to this - ability to create arbitrary legend information

Comment by Billy Vierra [ 2009 Nov 27 ]

I also am requesting this... I have a stacked graph with 40 different Items in it and with he legend the graph becomes unusable

Comment by Simon DOe [ 2010 Feb 07 ]

I also am requesting this... having problems with only 3 graphs.. they just hve up to 6 lines and legend is 6 lines also... i would need 1 legend only for all 3 graphs to fit on 1024x768

dublicates:
https://support.zabbix.com/browse/ZBX-191
https://support.zabbix.com/browse/ZBX-561
both in wrong section and closed...

so it seems hostname is also repeated information...
but all this is needed if looking on the graph alone...
i need to hide legend and hostname or both in SCREEN section and have custom 1 legend for all graphs...

like:
"Green: Space, Red: Load, Yellow: Speed"

for like 12 graphs.. and undublicated.

PS: for me this is not "minor".. im going to seek for another solution than zabbix without this issue

Comment by Alexey Fukalov [ 2010 Sep 13 ]

dev branch: ZBXNEXT-54

Comment by richlv [ 2010 Sep 13 ]

there seems to be a serious regression - all custom graphs now are rendered w/o legend.
additionally, when creating a new graph, legend defaults to off. it should default to on.

Comment by Alexey Fukalov [ 2010 Sep 14 ]

fixed default legend state.

Did you apply patch for graphs table? In old dbschema legend was off by default.

Comment by richlv [ 2010 Sep 15 ]

confirming the fix in dev branch rev 14467.

talking about dbpatch...

1. there are no commits listed in this issue, exercise for the reader - why the hell is that ?
2. there are no comments on the issue mentioning a db patch.

given current time and my location i will avoid from commenting on this any more.

 Description   

One feels that the recently improved interface to create a localization, but here to update the localization of something missing.

Well, I like never translate new added lines in the interface Zabbix because they find very difficult - almost impossible. I am using for this TurtoiseMerge utility . I opened an old file and a new downloaded and easy to move only on the changes.
I mean, that if the interface on the locale edit page was added the navigation for added and a blank value, then virtually anything can be done directly in the interface without using other utility.

I think you can add a up and down buttons (centered always on top) to scroll the window and switch the input focus on the rows that are empty or filled in by default value (english usual). Thus, these lines can highlight a different color.



 Comments   
Comment by richlv [ 2010 Aug 31 ]

it is planned to move to gettext for 2.0, so it probably wouldn't make much sense to put lot of work into polishing current custom interface.
once gettext is used, it should be possible to use all kinds of tools, including poedit, pootle etc

Comment by Oleksii Zagorskyi [ 2010 Aug 31 ]

I have already used Pootle - this is nice solutions. I vote to move to it

Comment by richlv [ 2011 Mar 16 ]

with gettext for 2.0, can this be closed ?

Comment by Oleksii Zagorskyi [ 2011 Mar 16 ]

Of course, it seems "Fixed" for 2.0 resolution is optimal.

I'd like to be able to run remote commands via a right click option.

Currently the only options are those that are run local to the zabbix server.

The reason being that we have a scenario that causes an alert, and we have remote commands that we can run to resolve the issue, but we are not yet ready for that to be fully automated.



 Comments

probably not remote commands, but global/frontend scripts;
and probably left click, not right click

anyway, it will be possible to run frontend scripts either on the agent or server in 2.0

(1) When creating a new node, the "Type" select doesn't have the "Master" option.

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<pavels> Now the "Master node" select is missing for child nodes.

<Eduard> Because you don't have master yet..

<pavels> The same error message for hosts says "Interface with IP "127.0.0.1" cannot have empty DNS name while having "Use DNS" property on "%HOSTNAME%". Let's make it consistent.

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<pavels> CLOSED.

(6) When trying creating a proxy without a "Proxy name" the error message reads "Warning. Incorrect value for field "host".". It should be "Warning. Incorrect value for field "proxy name".".

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<pavels> CLOSED.

<pavels> REOPENED: same thing when trying to create a proxy with an existing name: "Host "1" already exists."

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<pavels> CLOSED.

Comment by Pavels Jelisejevs (Inactive) [ 2012 Mar 13 ]

(7) History seems to be broken.

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<pavels> History is missing from Administration - General. This seems to have been broken in the trunk sometime earlier.

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<pavels> History should have a link to a specific configuration page, not just a single "Configuration of Zabbix" link.

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<pavels> I've changed the title of General / Other to "Other configuration parameters", it's more correct. CLOSED.

Comment by Pavels Jelisejevs (Inactive) [ 2012 Mar 13 ]

(8) The layout of administration/authentication and some other pages is broken in firefox https://support.zabbix.com/secure/attachment/18328/administration-authentication.png

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<pavels> CLOSED.

Comment by Pavels Jelisejevs (Inactive) [ 2012 Mar 13 ]

(9) The navigation menu is missing from the graph, application and screen forms.

<Eduard> Applications, Screens RESOLVED. For Graphs I will do it in ZBXNEXT-908, because most of code will be rewritten..

<pavels> CLOSED.

Comment by Pavels Jelisejevs (Inactive) [ 2012 Mar 13 ]

(10) It would be really great, if your current location in the navigation menu would be either highlighted, or displayed as text instead of link.

<Eduard> RESOLVED (current location will be without link)

<pavels> Doesn't work in the list of discovery rules and item prototype form.

<Eduard> RESOLVED, same as (14)

<pavels> Noup, still doesn't work.

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<pavels> Still doesn't work in the item prototype form, and in the discrovery form items are highlighted instead of discoveries.

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<pavels> CLOSED.

Comment by Pavels Jelisejevs (Inactive) [ 2012 Mar 13 ]

(11) Since you've also fixed page headers, there's one small issue. The header on monitoring/events reads "HISTORY OF EVENTS ON 13 Mar 2012 15:48:42" while on the trigger status page - "STATUS OF TRIGGERS [13 Mar 2012 15:51:23]". It should be unified.

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<pavels> CLOSED.

Comment by Pavels Jelisejevs (Inactive) [ 2012 Mar 14 ]

(12) A couple of code issues:

1. CDiscoveryRule already has a "selectPrototypes" option, there's no need for "selectItems";
2. I suggest renaming CWarning::render() to show() to be consistent with other classes.

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<pavels> CLOSED.

Comment by richlv [ 2012 Mar 14 ]

apparently, the work is happening in svn://svn.zabbix.com/branches/dev/ZBXNEXT-914

Comment by richlv [ 2012 Mar 14 ]

(13) apparently the trailing dot is missing for "Incorrect interface port "10051eee" provided"

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<pavels> CLOSED.

Comment by Oleksii Zagorskyi [ 2012 Mar 15 ]

(14) dev branch r26073 tested. When I click and open some discovery rule properties then I cannot click to a link "Item prototypes (2)" because it's not a hyper-link but just simple text.
When I click to "Trigger prototypes (1)" or "Graph prototypes (1)" then i CAN click to "Item prototypes (2)"

<Eduard> RESOLVED

<zalex> Successful tested, CLOSED.

Comment by Oleksii Zagorskyi [ 2012 Mar 15 ]

(15) according our discussion related to ZBX-3374 would be good to add additional link "<< Discovery rules list" prior the link "Discovery: <some name>"
Then the ZBX-3374 will be fully resolved.

<Eduard> RESOLVED
<zalex> Successful tested, CLOSED.

interestingly, this has broken map editing in opera (11.61, linux)

adding a new element now fails. error console just reports : "Syntax error at line 1 in event handler: expected expression, got <end of file>"

this was broken in revision r26226

 Description   

I'd like to see an ITEM.ID macro so that we could include URLs to history graphs in alert messages, e.g.:

/history.php?action=showgraph&itemid=

{ITEM.ID}

This would vastly improve our workflow.

This would be quite useful to quickly get a view of the event evolution without manually navigating through the interface.

Comment by Marcin Gapiński [ 2011 Nov 03 ]

I concur, I was actually surprised when I found out that there's no such macro yet

Comment by Alexander Vladishev [ 2012 Mar 20 ]

Available in the development branch svn://svn.zabbix.com/branches/dev/ZBXNEXT-744

Comment by Alexander Vladishev [ 2012 Mar 20 ]

Updated documentation:
http://www.zabbix.com/documentation/1.8/manual/config/macros?&#list_of_supported_macros
http://www.zabbix.com/documentation/2.0/manual/appendix/macros/supported_by_location?&#overview

<richlv> also added this info in http://www.zabbix.com/documentation/1.8/manual/about/what_s_new_1.8.12

<zalex> interesting, will be the macro TRIGGER.EXPRESSION exploded to item names and trigger function? If yes, I think it worth to add one word "exploded" or so to the documentation.

<Sasha> It's an user documentation. About the collapsed trigger expression user shouldn't know. It will mislead.

 Description   

Hi,

provide a template which monitors the internal health of the zabbix server/zabbix proxies.

I discovered that zabbix is capable to monitor itself (see chapter "19.8 Internal checks" of the documentation wiki) - provide a standard
template which provides a good understanding about zabbix behavior.

Probably the template provided at http://blog.zabbix.com/monitoring-how-busy-zabbix-processes-are/457/ is a good point to start.
(But the template dos currently not import on zabbix 1.8.4)

Regards Marc

Comment by richlv [ 2011 Jul 21 ]

most of the internal items are only supported since 1.8.5, so not importing on 1.8.4 isn't a huge problem

Comment by Igor Danoshaites (Inactive) [ 2011 Jul 22 ]

Mail from Marc Schoechlin:

Hi,

thanks for the hint - time to upgrade.....

I think it's a good idea to add such a template in the zabbix distribution....

Regards
Marc

Comment by Marc Schoechlin [ 2011 Jul 22 ]

Upgraded to 1.8.5 - but it´s not possible to import the zabbix template http://blog.zabbix.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/template_zabbix_server.xml.

1.) I select the template in the import dialog
2.) All options are hooked
3.) Zabbix executes the import but no positive/negativ feedback is available
4.) The new zabbix template does not appear in the list of templates

Comment by richlv [ 2012 May 08 ]

2.0.0 will have internal monitoring template included, closing
