discovery action duplicate entries

[angelhc]

Hello!
I'm playing with discovery actions and have a simple question

Is any way to avoid duplicate entries if the host exists on zabbix?

Actually I use this action conditions:

Discovery rule = "ServersProvlan999"
Received value like "linux"
Discovery status = "Discovered"
Service type = "Zabbix agent"
Host IP = "172.16.70.1-255"

The operations for this is only:
Add host
Add to host groups: Discovered Hosts


But if one of the discovered host is on another host_group the action includes the hosts on "Discovered Hosts".
Thanks!

Do I understand you correctly, that some hosts from 172.16.70.1-255 range were previously manually added into zabbix to some host group? And a discovery, that is happening afterwards, adds these host to another group?

I think this is pretty much by design - you either give an IP range for auto discovery, or work with it manually. And there is no condition for an action "if host belongs to group <group name>".
The only workaround could be to play with "Host IP" condition in the action, but it will be unconvenient.
