    Low level discovery-application name should have option to change

    We are using 2.0.9 version zabbix in our environment and created action using application name for alerts.
    example if DB team is supporting for one server, they want alert only for DB related items so which ever item they want alert we created application name is like drive-DB, service-DB, Fs-DB. Due to this we can avoid creating multiple actions.

    But after applying the LLD discovery we are facing issue with application changes in the LLD discovery item prototypes.
    I have created LLD discovery item prototype for file systems with "DIS-Fs-Ux" application name. but for few discovered file systems i want to change the application name as "DIS-Fs-DB" becasue those file systems belongs to DB team hence as per my action i need to give application name like "-DB".(Refer the attachment for clarification)
    As per my observation , this changing of application name in the host level items is not available in zabbix 2.0.9. How ever i changed the application name in zabbix database for this particular prototype but it reverted back to old application name as per discovery rule.
    Suggestion:- Once the File systems are discovered as per discovery rule, then it should update all the parameter except application name,When discovery rule runs as per interval ie. it should not update the application

    hi,

    i know what you mean!

    So you can do this by 2different ways, create different discovery rules based on fsname or fstype, but that only works if you use for you '-DB' always the the fsname(eg.: /var/DB) oder fstype (eg.: xfs)

      Hi Colttt,
      Thanks for the reply.

      Reg FSTYPE way - I have created file system discovery based for FStype only in which i set filter to discover xfs type file systems.
      All the xfs file system is not belongs to DB so how can i implement this way.

      Reg FSNAME way - each server file system name getting varied due to this i have to keep on adding the file system name and there is a limitation in char in regular expression so i have to keep on adding the file system name in row wise.
      I observed that each rows are acting like "and" condition in regular expression. but we want to be or condition since we are doing filter to discover the mentioned file system in regular expression.

      Kindly revert me if u are not clear about explanation.
