trigger for host "foo", which runs on host "bar"?

[ddrucker]

I have a UserParameter-defined key on the host foo which I use to check the availability of a particular service on host bar.

If I create a trigger on host "bar", using the expression:

{foo:mytrigger.name.last()}<>0

Zabbix will save that trigger as belonging not to "bar", but to "foo", and when I get an alert, it'll show up as Host "foo".

I want it to show up as belonging to host "bar" -- because that is where the problem is -- even though the actual CHECK is running on "foo".


Is this possible?

I would just put the user parameter in the trigger OP data/ description. Your alert will come from foo, but at least you'd see it is referring to host bar in your OP data

That's what I'm doing now, and it's less than ideal for organization of alerts.
