    Trying to delete template, getting asked if I want to delete host

    Zabbix 2.2
    Task: I have a host that is sending too many filesystem full notifications. We are being emailed when filesystem > 80% used. I need to increase that to 90%. The item for monitoring this filesystem in currently associated with the default linux template. I do not want to change the global filesystem settings.

    As shown in the docs I want to "Delete the template; entities of the template (items, triggers, etc) remain with the linked hosts. " by clicking on the Delete button.

    I have followed this path Configuration--->Hosts----"My Hostname"----Templates Tab

    I have the following buttons at the bottom of the page: Save, Clone, Full Clone, Delete, Cancel. When I click the delete button i get a dialog box that says "Delete Host?"

    I do not want to delete host. I want to unlink the host from the default template so I can edit it... Should I be using Unlink in Linked Templates box instead of delete? Is the documentation in error?

    Thanks
    Dave

    You are right.
    You have to "UNLINK template" without clear all collected data.

    the buttons "SAVE" / "CLONE" / "DELETE" / "CANCEL" are used for host maintenance.
