1.8 agent ZBX_NOTSUPPORTED for items with an argument with '-' in the text

[username_taken]

Anyone else seeing this?

I've got a bunch of tests that test multipath disks ( dm-2, dm-3, etc ) which have stopped working since upgrading to the 1.8 agent.

This is on a 64 bit centos box.

UserParameter=custom.vfs.dev.write.sectors[*],cat /proc/diskstats | grep $1 | head -1 | awk '{print $$10}'

# ./zabbix_get -s server -k custom.vfs.dev.write.sectors[dm-3] ZBX_NOTSUPPORTED

# ./zabbix_get -s server -k custom.vfs.dev.write.sectors[sda]

I've tried this with some other tests as well, and it seems as soon as I add a - into the argument it fails. Note I can run the test from the command line ( cat /proc/diskstats | grep dm-3 | head -1 | awk '{print $10}' ) and it works correctly.

If other people see this as well, I'll add it to the tracker.

and the same items work with 1.6 agent ? if so, report on the tracker right away
