agent.ping Issue

[bcarpio]

Hi,

I'm doing A/B application deployments in EC2 so I am consistently deploying new app nodes in EC2. I use auto-registration so new nodes come up, puppet puts down the zabbix agent and config and they check in automatically to Zabbix server.

However since my trigger is {Template_Linux:agent.ping.nodata(300)}=1} so once the systems come up they alert PROBLEM then go to OK.

There has to be a creative way to make new nodes not alert and nodes that are really down to alert... I'm on Zabbix 2.x

Resolved [agent.ping]

I have changed the trigger to be:

{Template_Linux:agent.ping.nodata(180)}=1 & {Template_Linux:agent.ping.last(0)}=1

This now works, so once a node has checked in and reported data and then goes to nodata for 180 seconds send a trigger.
