Services

[alexand3r]

Hey everyone !

First of all thank you for your quick anwsers, it's really helpfull mostly when you're now a Linux or Zabbix pro ! =)

I've got a question and I couldn't find the answer of it over the web neither on the forum.

I'd like to monitor a Windows service on my Zabbix server. For this I've used the key : service_state[Spool (for example)]

and the expression {xx:service_state[Spool].last(0)}>0 on my trigger.

It's working perfectly at one exception !
I want it to warn me only if the service is down for more than 2 minutes but I've no idea on how to manage this with this command.

Do you know how could solve this ?

Thank you for your time and answers !

Try this:

({xx:service_state[Spool].last(0)}>0)&({xx:service_state[Spool].nodata(120)}=1)

Note the brackets around the 2 separate expressions.

Thank you for your answer.

Well I tried your solution but it doesn't seem to work, the Service still appears as "Working" even after more than 5 minutes...

Isn't there anything that I should add on your command ?

[MrKen]

Can you post your exact Trigger expression. Much easier to troubleshoot.

Here it is :

({xx:service_state[Spooler].last(0)}>0)&({xx:service_state[Spooler].nodata(120)}=1)

Or {xx:service_state[Spooler].min(120)}#0

Thank you harmonica !

Indeed it was the right function to use I've just tried it and it worked as I wanted it to !

Have a nice day !
