Hello!
I'm quite new at Zabbix (v3.4.7 on Debian).
I have written a calculated item which forecasts the time it would take to fill a filesystem volume.
This can be used to trigger an alert if, say, the volume is going to be filled in X hours.
The analysis is done on the past data over a time interval (*).
My problem is that different filesystems have different usage patterns, and they can require
a longer or shorter interval.
My item is an item prototype under Discovery list/Mounted filesystem discovery, so all
hosts with the Template OS Linux will have it by default on all volumes.
Am I approaching the problem in the right way?
For now, I am using a macro (either global or host) as interval size, but is there a clean way
to have a custom value for each filesystem?
Regards
(*) four, actually. I got the formula from http://zabbix.org/mw/images/1/18/Prediction_docs.pdf
Edit - I think what I am looking for is Macro Contexts, maybe I have posted too soon:
