Systemd template: How to ignore "Service is not running"

[executor]

I am running Zabbix server and agent 2 5.0.15 on a Debian host and recently linked the new "Systemd by Zabbix agent 2" template to it. Now I am getting alerts like this for systemd oneshot services: "nvi.service: Service is not running". I tried to set the macro

 {$SYSTEMD.NAME.SERVICE.NOT_MATCHES}

to

rsync\.service|systemd\-fsck\-root\.service|nvi\.service|pppd\-dns\.service|anacron\.service|netdiag\.service

but it has not made a difference. Any suggestions what I am doing wrong or what I could try?

Finally figured it out after rereading several posts and the ultimate hint was here: https://www.zabbix.com/forum/zabbix-...049#post429049

Not only do you have to set the regex in the macro but afterwards, you also have to delete the already discovered items, otherwise it will keep warning about them forever.

Hi all


I'm having the same issue as you. how were you able to solve it?


This is the content of my macro

{$SYSTEMD.NAME.SERVICE.NOT_MATCHES}

=

^(sssd\.service|smartd\.service|selinux-autorelabel-mark\.service|microcode\.service|nvmefc-boot-connections\.service| ostree-remount\.service|multipathd\.service)$

. I've detached/atached the macro serveral times but warnings still apears.

As I wrote, you need to explicitly delete the items that were already discovered.

Just to save some space you can enter that regex as

^(service1|service2|service3|...|serviceN)\.service$

no need to enter that "service" everywhere...
