    Zabbix Proxy history poller utilization item gone

    After updating to Zabbix 6.2, I noticed a weird thing with Proxy.

    From proxy health monitoring, the internal item "Zabbix proxy: Utilization of history poller" got unsupported with the following message.
    No "history poller" processes started.
    When checking the proxy processes, I noticed that, in fact, it is not started.

    This request, ZBXNEXT-7498, seems to relate to this issue, but I'm not sure.

    In summary,
    Proxy Process Types doc says this process exists for Proxy.
    Supported Internal checks doc says it is available for Proxy.
    Standard Zabbix Proxy Health template does include an item for History Poller

    Zabbix Proxy configuration doc does not include StartHistoryPollers.
    Upgrade notes for 6.2.0 doc does not mention History Pollers.

    Therefore, I'm lost with this.
    The Proxy is certainly working without History Poller, but should it?
    Any thoughts on that?

    Sounds like worth opening an issue in support.zabbix.com. Since StartHistoryPollers was removed from the configuration docs for 6.2, it looks like other documentation and the template were not updated.
