    Cross-template triggers

    I recently upgraded to Zabbix v1.4 and am now in the process of organizing everything better.

    I used to have all items and triggers in the windows_t template. I now have an Exchange template for monitoring my Exchange servers, a SQL template for the database servers, etc. I used the Copy function to copy the items from the windows_t template to the appropriate new one, then deleted it from windows_t. I want to do that now with the triggers, but I am getting an error: "Missing key 'eventlog[Application]' for host 'Exchange'"

    The Trigger expression is: ({Windows_t:eventlog[Application].logsource(MSExchangeIS Mailbox Store)}=1)&({Windows_t:eventlog[Application].logseverity(2)}=2)

    Apparently it's looking for the event log item in the Exchange template and not finding it, which makes sense. When I tried copying the expression directly into a new trigger form while in the Exchange template, it simply created it under the Windows_t template instead.

    Is there a way to reference items from a different template?

      There is a thread about this, I am not sure where. I upgraded by test machine to the 1.4.1 agent and then my eventlog items wouldn't work. It is a known bug and I believe 1.4.2 will address it.

        It's not so much the agent I'm having problems with. I'm running the old agent, and it's still pulling event logs fine. But I gather the event logs in one template, and I want to use them in triggers from another template. I want to be in the Exchange template's triggers and access the event logs that were gathered in the Windows_t template. I haven't been able to find the thread on this. Could someone point me in the right direction? Thank you so much.

          I'm still unable to find any information on how to do this. Does anyone know where to look?
