Set different trigger (threshold) on an Item Prototype on the same host

[plui]

Here is what I'm trying to do.

• Setup LLD with database query to get the list of databases
• Setup Item Prototype that query for something for each database
• Setup a Trigger that have different threshold depending on which database it's querying

So far I haven't been successful in achieving the above.

• At first I tried to use User-Defined Macro on the database host but all the databases will have the same threshold.
• I then tried setting up Host Prototype to create a host for each database thinking I can then add User-Defined Macro for each of these "hosts". However, you can only inherit Macros on these hosts from the parent (i.e. the database server).

Is there anyway to achieve what I'm looking for?

Thanks!

Starting with zabbix 3.0 you can use context in your macros:

https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/3.0/manual/config/macros/usermacros#macro_context

and

https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/3.0/manual/discovery/low_level_discovery#using_lld_macros_in_user_macro_contexts

You still have to define the tresholds yourself, but you can have a different one for each database.
