parsing local time from excternal check (type of information: Log)
Hello friends,
my situation:
1. bash script echoing timestamp, e.g.: 20170807124738 ...
2. defined in Zabbix as external check with Log type of information
3. Log time format: yyyyMMddhhmmss
my expectation:
Time will be parsed to Local time column, when viewing item values in Latest data.
but:
It is not, whole script output with timestamp is displayed in Value column, not in Local time column. I am not sure, if this should work, or if I am doing some mistake, but in documentation:
Log type should be supported for external checks:
But elsewhere Zabbix agent mentioned as "must have":
Ambiguous a bit for me, anyway, thank you for any help, guys.
