Hello

we are experimenting with deploying zabbix agents on our linux boxes. One thing that I noticed is that when using the default Unix_t template, the free space is displayed incorrectly (for example, 13MB instead of 13GB). Does that require to change the multiplier?

The total space is displayed as 0B.

Please could anyone help me with this. Thank you.

Yes you must use 1024 as custom multiplier as the agent reports FS data in Kbytes.

Regarding total space, are you sure you configured the item properply ? No "unsupported" message in the server log ?

Thanks, Calimero

had a look at how the item was configured. The multiplier was set to 0. I wonder if that was my mistake (which i doubt) or a bug in the initial SQL script (the initial deployment was version 1.1, currently running 1.1.4, but no schema changes applied during the upgrade process).

Thanks again for giving me a clue on how to resolve it.
