    Limit autodiscovery for allready discovered hosts but found again with another IP

    Hi,

    I use second Zabbix for monitoring employes computers (1500 workstations). I know thak Zabbix is not designed to it, but it is quite usefull.

    Active checks are working there on hosts so, they are automatically reporting to Zabbix and segregating using Autodiscovery.

    Computers have dynamic IP and this is little problem for me, because when allready existing host is found with another IP:
    1. Next IP will be added to the host
    2. Autodicovery filters are running once again for allready existing host.
    and it makes 2 problems:
    1. In the future two or more hosts will have the same IP address in properties.
    2. Hosts are added once again to hostgroups that it was deleted ealier (because of autodiscover rule running one again)
    The questions are:
    1. Is there any hack to repleace old host IP with new one instead of adding new IP below old?
    2. Is there any hack to run discovery only for computers that are not allready existing in zabbix?
    Regards, Paul
