I have set up to monitor vcenter with zabbix. There is a Simple check "Get Alarms" that fetches all alarms from vcenter and i want to filter out and throw away some of the things this check might find. More specifically i want to filter out all events with the text: "Virtual machine CPU usage". These alerts show up in zabbix as problems but we have other means of keeping track of these problems. Can i do the filtering with preprocessing rules? This check will fetch other messages from vcenter which i want to keep. How can i write the preprocessing rule to do what i want?
edit, i have created this rule. Will it drop the message if it matches "Parameter" and keep everything else?
