Item Discovery on wrong server.

[kbencze95]

Hello,

I have an issue with item discovery. I set up a rule on a server called xy like this:


The problem is, when i hit the test button, the resulting json contains the directories of the server which zabbix is hosted on, NOT the xy server.
I got a tip, that I should use the type Zabbix agent(active), but if I set it up that way, I cannot test it, and after waiting a few minutes I see the 'Cannot obtain directory listing' error here:


Any tips would be appreciated.

Add or change the ip address of the host itself and it will appear in the selection list for the lld rule

Change the ip address in the host interface field to the agent's address. 127.0.0.1 is the local address of the server!

Thank you for the answer.

Sadly, that is the only option under Host Interface field.
