Zabbix agent items and wildcards

[Cumbalero]

Hello,

According to the manual, there are flexible and non-flexible parameters to items key, but I cannot find which item key will accept a flexible parameter.

For instance, is it possible to create such an item:
vfs.file.exists[/var/locks/T*] ?

Thanx in advance,
JF

Flexible / Non flexible means that there can be one or more arguments given to the item. It doesn't mean wildcard support (despite the use of * to denote flexible items).

It just means that you can/must give the item a comma separated list of parameters. But of course the item has to support it. Check manual for the complete list of arguments for built-in items.

For UserParameters it of course depends on the script that is called by zabbix_agent.
