Need to stop notifications

[admin.marchardison]

I need to stop notifications for several services "TrustedInstaller" (Windows Modules Installer) is not running (startup type automatic)" and "wuauserv" (Windows Update) is not running (startup type automatic)".

I am running Zabbix 6.0.2 and using the "Windows Servers with Agent 2 (ICMP Ping, Windows by Zabbix agent)" template for all Windows servers.

All pointers are appreciated.

Check out the documentation for that template:

https://git.zabbix.com/projects/ZBX/repos/zabbix/browse/templates/os/windows_agent?at=refs%2Fheads%2Frelease%2F6.0

Look at the macros the template is written to use. They allow you to tailor thresholds and other config for your environment.

A few of them are related to services, and can take a regular expression (regex) to tailor what services to ignore.

Note that I don't use that template, so I'm speculating about this next part: I think the regular expressions and macros are all for service discovery, so if the templates are already applied to a host before you alter the regular expressions to skip certain services, the services have already been "discovered" and applied to that host. You may need to do something like change the regex and then delete all the discovered services for a client and let discovery happen again, so that the new, adjusted list of services are discovered. Again, that's just speculation, as I'm not currently using that template anywhere.
