1 host in several host-groups

[tibo51]

Good evening everybody,


Let me explain my problem, I'm just setting-up Zabbix in order to monitor several kind of "out of service", for instance : "Backup windows service down, CPU full, RAM full, disk error, ..." So I created templates (ad applications ib) in order to apply template to the futures computer. By the way : I use the Zabbix trapper to retrieve information and use powershell scripts to check the troubleshooting but it doesn't matter I guess). All of that is so working perfectly, I even have mail notification
So I created 3 host-groups
- RAM & CPU
- Disk error
- Windows services

The aim is to have a precise information, and that information have to go in the good host-group (so in the good error)

MY PROBLEM IS : Let's take an example, My PC ! I want to monitor 3 kind of error, let's say that I have 1 error for each kind.
In zabbix's main page I would like to have so :
- RAM & CPU : 1
- Disk error : 1
- Windows services : 1

But actually all kind of error are mixed, I see cpu error in disk and vice versa
and I have a thing that looks like to this :
- RAM & CPU : 3
- Disk error : 3
- Windows services : 3

this is not very cool as result :/

Do you have any ideas ?

best regards !

Be aware that Host groups are related to Hosts but not to Items or Triggers.
So when for instance selecting a Host group in a filter, then anything related belonging to Hosts of that group are displayed.

If I understood correctly, then Applications comes closest to what you're describing. However, there is no Dashboard widget counting issues on Application level yet and it is also not possible to filter for Applications everywhere.

Maybe consider to make use of the Data overview widget provided by Screens.

ok

Ok thanks. So if I well understood, I need to create a host for each host-group (to solve my problem). I think it will be a good option to "filter" what do we want to display.

I think there's no way to group triggers by Application name in Dashboard in original 2.4.

Ok thanks ! Then I'll put all the host in a "general" group. I think it's the best way for me. Thanks a lot for ur answer
