External Check Item

[nmz]

I'm using external check item to get data for some purpose. Unfortunately I don't get data from other host. That's my item key

testing.sh["-h", "192.168.10.200"]

and script is located in 192.168.10.100
How can I get data from different host using External Check item?

Hi,

There is good documentation for External check items in Zabbix.com -

https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/3.0/manual/config/items/itemtypes/external

Check, if you have written path to your external scripts in zabbix_server.conf file (located in /etc/zabbix/zabbix_server.conf - it can differ, because of used OS)

Look for parameter 'ExternalScripts' and write path to the scripts as it is shown in https://www.zabbix.com/documentation.../zabbix_server

Of course I already configure in zabbix server event got result from those script to item. My question is I would like to get data from other host using this script with External Check Item. There's "-h" "IP" options in documentation. But I don't get result from different host/IP.

Sorry about unclear question.
