    Question about template prototypes

    In my last Zabbix implementation (3.2), I seem to remember that updating the default setting to a prototype trigger to disabled would then propagate the disabled switch to host triggers that were generated from that prototype... On my 4.0 installation, I am not seeing that happen.. I am wrong that this should be happening?

    Hi,
    Could it be that you're mixing up the behavior of discovery rule trigger prototypes in a template with simple triggers in a template?

    The behavior when it comes to simple triggers - if you disable them in a template, it will propagate to the hosts using the template. Meanwhile, with trigger prototypes, you can set only the initial trigger state via the "Create enabled" Option. This will not apply to the existing hosts by design.

      Yes, I've figured out that 'Create enabled' should be taken literally - once it's been created on a host, it can't be disabled by changing the 'create enabled' option on the prototype and that is by design. Thanks.
