Hi,
we have following setup - zabbix agent is using custom script that returns used bandwidth in GB and this value stored on zabbix server. There is preprocessing multiplier (1024*1024*1024) for this item to store value as bytes and B is used as item unit. This setup works just fine.
However there is problem when adding calculated item with forecast function (item value after 1 days based on last 2 days values). When bandwidth is under 1TB everything seems to work fine, but when bandwidth is close to 1TB we get 999999999999 which is limit for return value (based on documentation).
Why is there this limit for return value and is there any way to workaround this ? Or is there better approach ?
Thank you.
