Hello,
I am using zabbix 3.0 to monitor the vmware environment. A have some machines with connected and disconnected network interfaces. I am using Network device discovery rule (vmware.vm.net.if.discovery[{$URL},{HOST.HOST}]). This rule discover all network interfaces. This is good but I don't want to discover/create the disconnected interfaces. Are there any options to filter the disconnected interfaces?
I found the interface status in the zabbix server trace log and there is difference between connected and disconnected interface.
....
<startConnected>true</startConnected>
<allowGuestControl>true</allowGuestControl>
<connected>true</connected>
<status>ok</status>
....
<startConnected>false</startConnected>
<allowGuestControl>true</allowGuestControl>
<connected>false</connected>
<status>ok</status>
So the information is available. The question is how can I use this?
