how to make zabbix send mail only after 15 minutes when problem(trigger) is up

[haim358123]

Hi,

I have Zabbix server

I have lot of trigger and i configured to send mail alert when trigger is active and its working

The problem is that i receive lot of mails even if the trigger its for 20 seconds (my mailbox receive lot of mails)
I would like to know if you have way to configure my specific trigger to send mails only when the trigger is up for X time (for example, downtime of 15 minutes)
I would like to create this solution without creating another trigger (if this solution is possible)
Maybe you have any idea ?

Thank you,

Sounds like a trigger issue :P.

In seriousness though, if you want to delay all trigger emails though by X minutes (where the trigger hasn't resolved between 0-X minutes), set this in your trigger action (see attached). 15 steps @ 1m per step is a 15 minute delay. Those settings would suppress the initial action by 15 minutes. If the trigger resolves in those 15 minutes, no email is sent. If the doesn't resolve within 15 minutes, the email is then sent. Essentially, the email is "pending" in the action queue, and would be cancelled in the event the trigger which initiated the email is cancelled/closed/suppressed.
