LLD Filter value set to a variable

[withjigs]

Hi all,

We are using Zabbix 5.0 LTS with all hosts running agent 2.

I am currently trying to setup docker monitoring using template: https://git.zabbix.com/projects/ZBX/...at=release/5.0

I want to avoid some containers from being discovered, so will be using "Filters" for the "Containers discovery" rule.

As different group of hosts would need a different set of containers which should not be discovered, I am trying this:

1. On the template Macros tab, setting {$DOCKER.LLD.FILTER.CONTAINER.NOT_MATCHES} to a user defined macro, e.g. {$UNMONITORED.CONTAINERS}

2. When I apply the template to a host, I set value of the {$UNMONITORED.CONTAINERS} for the host - depending on the containers to ignore discovering.

I am still seeing items created for the containers that I would like NOT to be discovered.

Thank you for your help!

Define a new value to {$DOCKER.LLD.FILTER.CONTAINER.NOT_MATCHES} on host level. No reason to try to set a macro value via macro, which IIRC does not work...
