Hello everyone,
I have several active Linux-Agent2, because the server cannot reach the agents.
Now I want the hosts themselves to monitor whether certain services are available. My idea was to implement this with the net.tcp.service Simple-Check.
So I created corresponding items for the hosts, for example:
net.tcp.service[https,website.my.domain,443]
net.tcp.service[smtp,smtp.mail.example,25]
The problem now is that the services are not recognized and I think it is because the Zabbix server is trying to reach these domains (which it cannot do).
Hence two questions:
1. How can I implement such monitoring on the hosts, or where is my mistake
2. Is it possible to create a “generic trigger” that triggers an alarm whenever any item net.tcp.service[*,*,*] returns “0” for longer than 5 minutes, i.e. is not reachable?
Thanks for your help
