    Zabbix v2.0.1 Repeat Notifications

    I'm trying to setup repeated notifications in Zabbix 2.0. It appears to do this you should set the step operation "To" setting to "0".

    After I do this I'm do not receive any notifications. Would this be because the trigger has already tripped? I received the initial notification, I have permissions for the object and I can an event recurring (Monitoring->Events) but cycling between "Problem" and "OK" status.

    Additionally, I'm not clear why status cycles between OK and Problem when the condition (Drive < 1000GB) remains at around 846GB.

    EDIT: I found this comment on another post:
    "Notifications are only sent when the problem happens - that is, when an event is generated. if problem happened some time ago and you created action or trigger afterwards, no notification will be sent. "

    Is it possible to setup a recurring notification after a trigger has triggered? If a trigger is state "Problem" and on the next check it is still "Problem", how are notifications handled? Thanks...

    Haven't used it yet, but isn't that what "Multiple PROBLEM events generation" in the trigger creation is for? (Might not be in 2.0.1 yet. We're at 2.0.4.)

      You can return trigger to OK state by changing the expression (on knowingly wrong). After that, you can return the previous expression and the trigger should will go to a Problem state.
      Also, you can use option "Multiple PROBLEM events generation" which Herta proposed.
