    When will Zabbix Agent Re-Check an item that is ZBX_NOTSUPPORTED?

    Hi All,

    We've got a series of custom UserParameter values and scripts and, during their creation I would make many a typo or permissions error that would cause the agent to return ZBX_NOTSUPPORTED for the item or, in some cases, I simply forgot to put the custom UserParameter on a particular agent and was checking for values on non-existent keys and getting ZBX_NOTSUPPORTED.

    My query is when, if ever, will the zabbix agent retry an item it has previously been marked as not supported? Does it do it on agent restart? Is it somehow tied to "RefreshActiveChecks" in the agent config?

    Right now we are fixing any problems and just hoping that the item becomes supported again. Eventually the item does, but we're not sure if disabling said item on the master is doing it, or whether it is us restarting the agent manually or what.

    Any clarification is appreciated.

    Cheers,
    DD

      Ahhh That's the one. I thought it would be an agent-side setting, so didn't look into the master. Cheers BDiE8VNy.
