Actions setup

[fredo2906]

Using Zabbix 2.2.

I setup actions/notification to send mails to admin with the following rule :

Report problems to Zabbix administrators
Maintenance status not in maintenance
Trigger value = PROBLEM
Trigger severity >= Average
Send message to user groups: Zabbix administrators via all media

However, zabbix is still sending me emails with a subject :

"OK: 90% mem Heap Memory used on ...."

How to block those "OK" emails ? Seems like everytime zabbix evaluate a trigger, and if the trigger is OK, it will send a notification.
What am i doing wrong?

Thanks a lot for your help in advance.

Anybody having the same issue?

Here is some info out of debug logs :

4762:20140729:140644.528 alerter [sending alerts]

Trigger URL:

1. Num of dropped packets accessing DB (server1:net.if.ping[db]): 0
2. Num of dropped packets accessing DB (server1:net.if.ping[db]): 0
3. *UNKNOWN* (*UNKNOWN*:*UNKNOWN*): *UNKNOWN*

Original event ID: 2848799"'

This trigger is said OK, but still executing an action ... that looks like a bug.

Found the solution

Actually zabbix is going to evaluate the data everytime a new data come in.
So, if there is an action configured with a "recovery message", then the message will be sent everytime a new data come.
I removed the recovery message, now only problems are sent.
