Creating a trigger for multiple items

[stefstef]

Is it possible to create a single trigger for use with multiple items? I've created items to handle input from zabbix_sender and I'm hoping I won't have to create a bunch of triggers to handle the same error conditions for these items.

I'm new at this, so there may well be a simple solution for this, but I haven't found it yet.

is it for multiple hosts with the same item of multiple, similar items for single host ?
if the former, use templates.
if the latter, i'd suggest creating single trigger, exporting to xml, scripting and importing xml. note that xml import unfortunately doesn't work in 1.8, it will be fixed in 1.8.1

These are numerous similar items on a single host. I take your answer as a no then.

Thanks for the assistance though.

in that case i would use (and have used ) xml import/export. if you can wait, wait for 1.8.1, if not, try trunk frontend, which should have import problem fixed
