    Zabbix 2 host alive check

    Hi
    I am in the progress of building a new zabbix 2 to replace out zabbix 1.8

    I am having big proglems with what should be a simple check to see if a host is alive.
    I have advised used the agent.ping.nodata check
    My trigger is:
    {template_linux:agent.ping.nodata(2m)}=1

    The problem is when ever a host is registered with auto registration, it triggers and send alerts once before being marked as OK. Then periodically gives false alerts. There must be a better trigger to use than this to check if the host is alive? Any deas?
    Thanks
    Will
