[y00p]

Hi, everyone. i appreciated any clue to test a trigger function, to do that i want to know the result returned by the function applied to the item key in "X" moment or is there a way to debug the trigger ?


Thanks
Regards

[bashman]

Take a look at:

Thanks for the the tip, i already read it, there are examples how to use the trigger but i didn't find how to test it

i need to know the value return of the function
specially for the functions delta, last, sum

any advise?

Regards

[bashman]

Return value for delta can be an integer or float number, it does max()-min() for the time or the number of values you specify as parameter.

Last can be any value (integer, float, string, text, or log), it depends on the value type of your item. It returns the item latest value.

Sum can be an integer or float number, it adds the values within the time or value numbers you specify as parameter.

Again thanks for reply
but i want to know the result returned of the function
or is there a way to see what's the last value like in the page
"Monitoring - Last Data" for triggers function?

THANKS

Hi,

is there a way to see what's the last value like in the page
"Monitoring - Last Data" for triggers function?

Short answer, no.
Trigger expressions are evaluated on the fly and results are not stored anywhere.

If you want to know the result of your trigger expression, you can create a "Calculated item" that uses the same expression as your trigger.
Beware, syntax is slightly different for triggers and calculated items.
You can check the manual for details : http://www.zabbix.com/documentation/...lculated_items
