10 Template changes
This page lists all changes to the stock templates that are shipped with Zabbix.
Upgrading to the latest Zabbix version will not automatically upgrade the templates used. It is suggested to modify the templates in existing installations by downloading the latest templates from the Zabbix Git repository and importing them manually into Zabbix. If templates with the same names already exist, the Delete missing options should be checked when importing to achieve a clean import. This way the old items that are no longer in the updated template will be removed (note that it will mean losing history of these old items).
