    Solution to a no data trigger expression?

    We have a Zabbix trapper item which receives string data from a script on a remote host. These strings include various type of information like hostname, severity, description etc. We have created dependent items which filter out the 5 different possible severities.
    We have created 5 triggers which triggers on the different severities, and a nodata function which should close the alarm in 6m. Also created a tag which we use for trigger based correlation.

    However is there a way to combine the nodata function with say the content of the tag? You see the script that sends the data, if the problem has gone away, it simply doesn't send that actual string anymore. If this was the only string on that item, the nodata function would have worked, but there could be plenty of other strings that have the same severity.

    What I am looking for is a nodata function for a specific string in the item (tag value e.x), not nodata on the whole item.


    A bit hard to explain, but I can answer more specific if you have any questions.

    And what are you monitor with this script if you don't mind asking.. I guess there isnt a way to get that from agent? Agent will send "stream" which can be used easier to determine change and recovery expressions

    Or have a script adjusted to send info also when problem doesnt exist and back to normal?

    Maybe method is wrong? From where script is taking information?

    Is this item .trapper is one generic for all hosts or per host?

    Not sure if this will help but see 2 last posts from this
