Hello all,

i have upgraded to Version 1.1.3 of Zabbix Agent and Server. I made an Item which is supposed to show me free Diskspace on / , but while it shoes me correctly 407.87 MB as the latest Value when on the Latest Data Screen, it shows me the Number 427681792 when on the Overview Screen. How can this be fixed?

Thanks a lot,
Overrider

Hi

Do yo configure units and multiplier fields for this item?
You should set multiplier to 1024 and set units to "B".
This works for me.

sure, the multiplier is 1024 and the unit is B. it all works on the latest data screen, just the overview screen shows long numbers

I'm runing version 1.1.3 and I just checked for this. Mine is showing values like:

Total disk space on /opt - 15.96 MB 23.89 MB 64.18 MB 9.17 MB

This is on the overview screen also. You sure you are not looking at inodes?

no, its not right. it hasnt been like this in earlier versions. i rather see the mb / gb value instead of that long number.

what we need to figure out is if this bug is the same as the sticky above...

Did you try changing the Type of information from "Numeric (Integer 64bit)" to "Numeric (float)"? If not, give that a go and let us know if it fixed your problem.

hello there,

changing the item to numeric float does seem to fix the problem (great!). but can that be? the item i created i took from the items which are coming with the unix_t template.

thanks a lot,

Hello there,

thanks, but i have freshly installed a new machine from scratch with zabbix 1.14 server and agent, and it is exactly the same as before. in the overview, it shows numbers, and in the latest data, it shows the right values in mb or gb optionally. did you fix it also for 1.14 or only for the betas? is it an easy fix to do myself? can you tell me where to change the code in which file to temporarely fix it? i really think zabbix is smoking hot, and being able to view all my servers diskspace on one screen would be a big help for me.

thanks a lot,
overrider
