Zabbix sender to an item protype

[cedric.marcoux]

Hello,

i'm creating a custom template to monitor Posh-Acme certificate deployement (let's encrypt)
So i use a powershell script to execute posh-acme action then i try and catch error in the code. When error occur i send it to zabbix via trapper-item linked to the domain.com that have issue.
I have made the template with LLD discovery, the discovering is for domain programmed in posh-acme.
I have 10 item-prototype that is created successfully like this:
letsencrypt.exchange.module[(mydomain1.com)]
letsencrypt.iis.module[(mydomain1.com)]
letsencrypt.exchange.module[(mydomain2.com)]
letsencrypt.iis.module[(mydomain2.com)]
.....

This i try to update theses item prototype with zabbix sender without success:
zabbix_sender -z $ZabbixHost -p 10051 -s $AgentHostname -k letsencrypt.exchange.module[(mydomain1.com)] -o "OK";

I have also try to send directly a json without success

{"request":"sender data","data":[{"host":"dtcmsmgmt001.TST.grp letsencrypt.exchange.module[(mydomain1.com)] OK","key":null,"value":null}]}
success processed: 0; failed: 1; total: 1; seconds spent: 0.000063

It always fail, my issue is how to reach the item protype key from zabbix_sender?

Thanks for help

Hey there,

did you try to use -v or -vv with zabbix_sender to see if it will show you the reason for failure? I dont outright remember what exactly is shows on verbose output by sender.

Few extra qeustions:
Are you using standalone Zabbix server or are there Zabbix proxies in play when monitoring the host from which you try to send data?
Are you using encryption for ZBX_Server <-> ZBX_Agent communication?

"host":"dtcmsmgmt001.TST.grp letsencrypt.exchange.module[(mydomain1.com)] OK",
"key":null,
"value":null

That's not what you should be sending, right?
