How to set up Triggers in 1.1beta8

[just2blue4u]

Hi folks!

I want to monitor the cpu-load on localhost. zabbix v1.1b8
one of the expressions i tried was:

{localhost:system.cpu.load(avg1)}>1

which gave me an error: "No such host (localhost) or monitored parameter (system.cpu)".

In the documentation it says "{zabbix.sf.net:system[procload].last(0)}>5". This expression looks like it's for older clients with the old key syntax...

What do i have to do to get this working?

Regards,

Perhaps you meant something like:

{localhost:system.cpu.load[,avg1].last(0)}>1

[elkor]

and replace "localhost" with the hostname as zabbix knows it.

Thank You!

{localhost:system.cpu.load.last(0)}>1

was the correct expression.

BTW: For what does "last(0)" stand?

[elkor]

it means the last reading

0 is the number of seconds and is the only number that really makes sense for the "last" function I guess.

avg(300) would be the avrerage value of the last 300 seconds worth of data. etc.
