Referencing proxy in Trigger

[cameron.mcgregor]

Is there a way to reference the proxy in the Trigger?

For example: {HOST.NAME} is not available from {PROXY}

This would put the actual host name in the alert but it doesn't work for the proxy.

Have you found a solution to this? I too want to have proxies in the alerts.

Hi,

Take a look at

https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/2.4/manual/appendix/macros/supported_by_location?s[]=host

{PROXY.NAME} is supported in:

* Trigger-based notifications and commands
* Discovery notifications
* Auto registration notifications
* Trigger based internal notifications
* Item based internal notifications
* Low-level discovery rule based internal notifications

Best regards,
Dmitry

Unfortunately despite the documentation proxy.name does not work in action notifications.

The documentation is either wrong or there is a bug in the software

My bad. My original test I think was missing quotes. This is working.

Sorry for the false alarm.

Yo. How did u fix this?
My expression is returning "Proxy {PROXY.NAME} does not exist."

Item key is zabbix[proxy,{PROXY.NAME},lastaccess] but it returns that it does not exists

I guess you're trying to put this item for your proxy, so you can check for the lastaccess.

Do you monitor your proxy via itself ("Monitored by proxy - <yourproxy>" on the host configuration page)? And it's required to be so for using "Zabbix proxy health" template for example. I think {PROXY.NAME} resolves into corresponding proxy names only for hosts which are monitored by proxies.

Yes. I do monitor using proxy. Well. If it is not possible for me to get the name of the proxy in my Zabbix Server in the trigger, how can I reference the host name itself?
I used `zabbix[proxy,{HOST.NAME},delay]` but the item was saved with the name `{HOST.NAME}` and did not get the name of the host.

In item config macros are never expanded...
