Zabbix agent on Veeam server not reporting in properly

[Jason]

We've a strange one here...

We have a Windows 2008 R2 server with Veeam 9 running on it and zabbix agent 2.4.7

All was fine until the last Veeam/windows update went on and now we're seeing the host pinging on and offline in our monitoring.

The uptime check which should run once a minute is only reporting data every 13 minutes (regular as clockwork). I've tried replacing the agent in case executable was damaged, but same thing seen.

Everything else on the server seems fine, but data is just not appearing in our monitoring for it... Anyone else seen this?

Oh, and the convenience update that has been causing havoc with VMware isn't installed.

Tracked this down. It seems like the powershell calls to veeam for the status of the jobs were taking longer to reply and so the calls were hitting the limit on how long the agent could run for.

Increased the time between successive items and the problem has gone away.

I'll look into why the calls were taking longer later, but it's progress
