Host Boot Time on Screen

[rbrucks]

I'm running zabbix server 2.0.5 on RedHat 5.6 64-bit and have a 2.0.5 agent running on RedHat 5.6 64-bit app server.

I'm trying to create a screen for my RHEL server stats (all set to dynamic) and all the graphs show perfectly. But I'm also trying to include key information on the screen such as the last boot time for the servers being monitored.

When I add the last boot time it is displayed in epoch seconds instead of as a timestamp. Is there any way to show this as a timestamp value in the screen?

It shows up as a timestamp from the "Latest Data" page but won't show as a timestamp on a screen.

Thanks!
Rob

That sounds to me like a Frontend bug. Check the changelog since 2.0.5, because it may have been fixed.

Usually these kind of things are pretty easy to fix if you know PHP.

Host boot time in seconds?

I'm running Zabbix 2.4.5 on Ubuntu 14.04.

I want an overview of boot times for my managed machines,
but when I enable the item, it just shows a number of 8 digits.

Is this ms? And is there a way to format it in seconds?

I think that value unit are "unixtime".
If you want show that value on map, please try use macro at map label.

ex.
{<host name>:system.boottime.last(0)}

If you want show that value on "Latest data", please set Units to "unixtime" for that item.
