    Cannot change Proxy server at Discoverd host

    Hello,
    I've lot of hosts discovered by the VMware templates. These hosts are configured to use a proxy-server. (in the host prototype). But now I want to change this setting to "no proxy", but that isn't available. Is it a bug or is is impossible? Or how can I change these setting?
    I use Zabbix 6.2.3

    Your host is created based on prototype... if prototype has proxy, your host has a proxy....


    The following discovered host parameters are customizable:
    • Templates - it is possible to link additional templates to these hosts or unlink manually added templates. Templates inherited from a host prototype cannot be unlinked.
    • Description
    • Status - a host can be manually enabled/disabled.
    • Tags - host tags can be added manually, alongside the tags inherited from the host prototype. Neither manual nor inherited tags can be duplicate, i.e. have the same name and value. If an inherited tag has the same name and value as a manual tag, it will replace the manual tag during discovery.
    • Macros - host macros can be added manually, alongside the macros inherited from the host prototype. For inherited macros, it is possible to change macro value and type on the host level.
    • Host inventory fields

      Oke, but I've different situations.
      1. The Host prototype has a proxy configured. But I cannot change the setting of the Host prototype.
      2. The Host prototype doesn't have a proxy configured. The discoverd host itself has a proxyserver, but I cannot change that.

        Right, my bad... I do not use vmware monitoring, so did not remember correctly. All those hosts inherit proxy from the vCenter host (the initial host, where all data is pulled from). And you cannot change it later ... Only if you set your vCenter host to use no proxy, then all the "children" will inherit this...
