Chained discoveries?

[Juanito]

Hi,

I'm a bit new and playing around with custom LLD. I was wondering if there is a way to "chain" 2 discoveries.
I'll try to explain what i mean here:
- my 1st discovery parses some xml via http agent using a first URL and grabs {#VALUE_1},
- using {#VALUE_1} as parameter in another URL, i'm able to fetch another value {#VALUE_2} in my 2nd discovery,
finally, using both {#VALUE_1} and {#VALUE_2} as parameter in a 3rd URL, i'm able to grab the metrics i'm looking for.

I try to be clear but not sure i am! And potentially, i could be trying to use Zabbix in a wrong way... Thanks for any suggestion or comment! Jean

Hi Splitek,

Thanks for the time you took to look at my scenario. I'm making progress thanks to the dependent items. But it seems i'll need to lower the complexity of my scenario, since Zabbix won't allow me to use the result of a dependent item as a parameter for another dependent item or discovery. Getting my 3rd URL implies too much steps and dependencies ahead. Thanks again, you helped me to make a huge progress understanding the Zabbix philosophy!
