Items, scripts and arguments

[nicolasfo]

Hello,

I have to parse a file (let's say results.txt) like this :

element1 10000
element2 2403900
element3 698400

element1, element2 and element3 are already knwown by Zabbix by a Discovery.

I've made a shell script (parse.sh) like this :

#!/bin/sh

cat result.txt | grep $1 | awk '{print $2}'

If I call this script like this :
sh parse.sh element1
The result is 10000 etc... and this is what I want to do with Zabbix.

I want Zabbix get the values contained in the txt file by using the script and to be able to pass arguments(Discovers elements) to this script to get the correct value.

I really don't know in wich direction to go.

Could someone help ?

Thanks in advance

Nicolas

you can do this by a discovery rule!

first create a LLD (low-level-discovery) rule to get element1/2/3..
second create an item based on the lld that runs you script and the given parameter (element1).. thats it
