Active checks - agent send information every minute

[felipeneuwald]

Hi,

I have these situation: Agent is not reachable from the zabbix server, but the agent can reach the zabbix server. I have configured my agent and my zabbix server like http://www.zabbix.com/wiki/doku.php?id=howto:activehost .

As I can see, sometimes the zabbix agentd let more than 10 minutes to send informations to zabbix server. How to configure zabbix agentd to send informations to zabbix server every minute?

Thanks, Felipe.

Err... set update interval to 60sec when creating items ?

By the way do you have enough trappers started (StartTrappers=10 in zabbix_server.conf for example) ?

I have some items that the update interval is 5 secons.

Here is my zabbix_server.conf:
