Multible values for one item

[alzabbixforum]

Hi.

I haven't found an answer to the following question.

Maybe I have searched wrong.

I want to reduce the call of

fail2ban-client status ssh

The current solution is like this

UserParameter=f2b.filter.cf,/usr/bin/fail2ban-client status ssh|awk '/Currently failed:/ {print $5}'
UserParameter=f2b.filter.tf,/usr/bin/fail2ban-client status ssh|awk '/Total failed:/ {print $5}'
...fail2ban-client status ssh|awk '/Currently banned:/ {print $4}'
...fail2ban-client status ssh|awk '/Total banned:/ {print $4}'

for this I have script which calls only once the fail2ban-client collect the data and can return all date once, similar like munin.

http://netstat.root24.eu/cgi-bin/munin-cgi-html/Root24/Root24/fail2ban.html

In general is it possible to return more then one value to Zabbix server over UserParameter?

Thank you for your help

You need to use zabbix sender to insert multiple values at the same time.

So it's doable, just not with a standard user parameter.
