EventLog watching Triggers and graphs

[Tractorboy]

I have created an eventlog Item, that checks for a specific occurrence. Simple enough.

I now want to trigger if more than three occurrences of that item occurs in 1 minute. I have searched and cannot seem to find anything remotely similar to base anything off.

I also want to graph the number of occurrences to see how often they occur. Again nothing seems to exist with this type of information.

This all seems reasonably standard type of graph and trigger so hopefully many people have achieved this in a simple way?

Ideas welcomed

Hi,

You can set a trigger with count function:

{host:item.count(60)} > 3

See trigger functions for details : http://www.zabbix.com/documentation/...onfig/triggers

I also want to graph the number of occurrences to see how often they occur. Again nothing seems to exist with this type of information.

This all seems reasonably standard type of graph and trigger so hopefully many people have achieved this in a simple way?

If you want to graph the number of occurrences per minute, you can define a "calculated item" :

count("host:item",60)

and use it in a graph.

See http://www.zabbix.com/documentation/...lculated_items
