Triggers status question.

[grejer]

Hello,
on my windowsXP box I try to define trigger for "Low free disk space on {HOSTNAME} volume c:" from Windows Template.
Why the trigger fire out in trigger status page with status "OK" and green colour although the trigger settings are met?

Trigger expression: {hostX:vfs.fs.size[c:,free].last(0)}<95000000
Severity: Averadge
Event generation: Normal

What trigger status means? I can see 3 different status: OK, Problem, Unknown.

Why trigger filter set to: "Show only problem" doesn't work? - I still can see triggers with status "OK".

OK,
I've cought the reason why triggers are not fired on RED colour (and have status OK). Thats becouse of value of key vfs.fd.size - it seems like this key return BYTES not KB. In a docs there is "Disk space in KB" for this key which is not true I think.
So I add some zeroes on the end of trigger expression and it start working.

And trigger with status "OK" are no longer view when changing TRIGGER_FALSE_PERIOD value to 0

I had the same issue, it's NOT kb, its byte. The description is wrong.
