Hi everyone,
I am new to Zabbix but already enjoying it. I was just wondering what is the difference between following these steps (as outlined in the manual) and using the default trigger "Trigger "Server {HOSTNAME} is unreachable"" in the Template Linux to test for availability.
I followed the steps in the manual and created the action (with email sent to me and everything) but I never received the email and no events were recorded in the monitoring section.
However, I restarted the computer and got an "Host unreachable" notice (I had configured an action to receive an email for every Trigger value = "PROBLEM". So it seems that this is easier and pretty much out-of-the-box method to test for availability.
Anyway, suggestions and comments are more than welcome!
