Free disk space bug? - Centos 5.4_x86_64 - zabbix agent 1.8

[ufocek]

Hi,

I runing zabbix agent 1.8 on centos 5.4 server x86_64, when I was look in filesystes I see:

Free disk space on / 14 Dec 2009 23:19:21 7.46 TB
on real serwer it's a:
[[email protected] zabbix-1.8]# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/md0 9.5G 1.6G 7.5G 17% /

Other server where I have zabbix agent in version 1.8 but system is a i386 evrything is a good, only this host value is bad show.

Hi,

If I set a Custom multiplier: 1024 now I see good information about how many size partition is used, but I don't know where is a problem and other serwer show me information in TB not GB

*
All hosts now are required to belong to at least one group. -> I have
*
CPU index for system.cpu.util key on Linux now starts with 0.
*
Support for PHP 4 dropped. -> I have 5.2.6
*
Key vfs.fs.size returns data in bytes for all operating systems now.
*
Key vfs.fs.size now takes into account reserved diskspace for root user.
*
Comment at the end of a configuration file line is not allowed anymore (this worked for numeric parameters only before).

you should not set multiplier with zabbix agent 1.8 - previously diskspace was reported in kb on some systems, in bytes on others, so you had to multiply returned kb to get bytes. now it's in bytes everywhere - multiplier not needed anymore

Ok, but when I not set muliplier zabbix show me:

Free disk space on / 18 Dec 2009 15:56:37 6.63 MB - zabbix_agentd 1.6.x
Free disk space on / 18 Dec 2009 15:57:48 6.64 GB - zabbix_agentd 1.8.x

I have zabbix server in pre-zabbix-1.8-8771, one host have zabbix agent in version 1.8.x, and all of the rest have zabbix agent version 1.6.x
It's not compatible?

I've posted a ticket https://support.zabbix.com/browse/ZBX-1531 with the same problem.

The manual for 1.8 states "vfs.fs.size[fs <,mode>] Disk space in bytes"
Manual for 1.6: "vfs.fs.size[fs<,mode>] Disk space in KB"

So yes, it's not compatible.
One need to fix the multipliers in items and modify triggers :-(
