Thank you in advance with your patience for my question here - I'm still pretty new to Zabbix and have been using the forum and google to aid with my questions, but I've run into something where I'm not finding a clear cut example of how to do this.
Situation:
We use the Macro tab in a particular Template to populate several values on each host (at discover time) so that for a base system with nothing else configured, we can send trigger information to ServiceNow and have tickets created in the appropriate bucket for the OS Admin team.
There are certain cases (we can use Oracle file systems for the example), where we might want to send that notification directly to a different team.
I've set up a separate trigger to override the auto discovered File System triggers for a test file system, but I'm not spotting anywhere on the trigger itself where I could change the macro that says send the tickets to say the DBA team versus the UNIX team.
#1, is there a way to do that in the administration gui to override the macro that we execute for the host based on the template or am I out of luck doing so?
#2, If #1 is false, then I thought I realized that via LLD Discovery, you can populate some values in your /etc/zabbix/zabbix_agent.conf (or the zabbix_agentd.conf) to do this, but I haven't spotted a good clear cut example of how to do this as a per-file-system override of populating a value.
let's use
systemname=myunixmachine
file system in question = /u01
parameter_we_macro_1=UNIX group
Any thoughts, or are we out of luck?
