    How do I change the Severity of a trigger

    Sorry, I'm new to Zabbix so please be gentle. I have searched but cannot find the answer...
    - Zabbix 6, clean install, using Agent on windows VM

    I am using the out of the box VM Template "Windows by Zabbix Agent", I believe the disk monitoring is a discovery rule that creates the usage triggers based on the disks it finds.
    - I can see the discovery rule called "Physical disk discovery"

    I can see how to change the trigger (like set to Warning) for the out-of-the-box triggers, but how do I get to the ones that are part of discoveries / discovered disks (I hope this makes sense).
    - Currently, it sets to Warn and I want >90% used to be a "high" so I can trigger an alert for all High alerts.

    Sorry second item. I have setup an action trigger and added a condition "Event name" = "disk", do I have to use wildcards around the search terms to make it work (I tried but doesn't seem to work)?

    Hello,

    To change the severity of the trigger you need to modify the trigger prototype in the discovery rule.
    On the template configuration interface, go to "discovery rules" then you can see the "trigger prototypes" for each rule.
    You click on those that correspond to the disk discovery rule and you can modify the triggers.​

    For the event name, do you have a screenshot with the configuration of your action?​

      I have now found it (using your guide). It was not in the "Physical disk discovery" template but it is located in the "Mounted filesystem discovery" template, I was in the right place but the wrong template.

      I have now changed the alert level and is working 100%.

      Support is much appreciated.​
