The goal is to have a trigger based on that calculated item. If there hasn't been any traffic on that VPN at 2am, then triggers...

I've searched this forum and the whole internet (twice! ) for any solution, but couldn't find one up to now. Here's my situation: i'm running several checks against a machine using external scripts.

Hi,

Sometimes the items become unsupported because of some issue (usually database unavailability), however they never become active again after the issue is solved.

To clarify, the script works fine. It returns the single line of text that I'm looking for. However, Zabbix shows absolutely nothing as the return value.

Using Zabbix I can monitor my intranet websites very easily, but monitoring external websites I am having difficulties. I want to monitor just simple HTTP uptime.

For example : How do I monitor if HTTP is working on www.google.com ?

Thanks in advance

I have an external check set to run with an interval of 43200 s (every 12 hours).

The problem that I'm facing is that the script runs mornings at 08:20 and evenings at 20:20.

I would like the check to be executed from Zabbix in the afternoon and at night (15:00 and 03:00)....
