Hello Everyone,
Super new to Zabbix and Linux environment and currently facing issues with icmp ping trigger.
Running Zabbix version 3.4.7
this is affecting all host(Server and network) present in zabbix.
we havent changed anything in terms of templates which will cause this.issue

Error - Cannot evaluate expression: "Cannot evaluate function "ServerName:icmppingloss.max(600)": item is not supported"

Steps take
all i have done is login to Zabbix server and tried to ping one server in each subnet and i am getting response. so that show zabbix is able to reach all our subnets.


Could anyone assist or seen this kind of issue.

Your trigger calculation fails as the item you are using is on "not supported" state. Try to look up, why is that item in such state. There is probably a red ! icon and you should see some kind of error message, if hovering over it.

didnt realise item has their own error as well.
below is the error from item

fping failed: (null): can't create raw socket (must run as root?) : Address family not supported by protocol

Documentation is your friend..

https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/3.4/en/manual/config/items/itemtypes/simple_checks#icmp-pings

Are all the permissions in place for fping?

Its all there in that Documentation page, if you care to read. If it is a orc language to you, then you maybe should try to read a bit more about linux file permissions etc. Its all available out there, in internet.
