Hello there!
So, i do, sometimes, verify my Zabbix db to collect data for many reasons. And i'm able to notice that queries made to search for events that results in a real problem (like one shown on dashboard) returns more results than i expect it to.
As i'm able to see, Zabbix event's table saves, not only problems and recoveries, but many other events.
For that, i filtered some queries throught event.value and trigger.value, which i understand that means:
- event.value is the event that triggers a problem, so at that time there was a problem.
- trigger.value indicates if the trigger is having problem at the time of the query.
But, as i'm also able to notice, Zabbix database saves as "event.value = 1" events where the item data = "no data", for the cases where there wasn't data yet or there was a problem with the measure. Which doesn't really indicates a problem, not necesseraly.
So, i want to find a way to really collect events that appears on zabbix dashboard, which results in a real problem.
Can someone enlighten me?
Thanks!
