    Using "seconds" as a unit gives you "Kseconds" - huh?

    So I want to use custom "units" in my items. As soon as you get 1024 of the "unit" it turns into k<unit>. So if i am measuring say packets it starts telling me about "Kpackets".

    How do I stop this? Is there a way to customise this?

    Thanks.

    Turn off the multiplier.

    In the item configuration.
    Use multiplier -> "Do not use"

    If your item has some very large numbers the graph will become quite challenging to read.

      You should use "s" instead of "seconds". That way zabbix will automatically recognize it as seconds and will convert it to "78 days, 10:21:16" where appropriate.
