    Error calculating Free Disk space item

    As I understand, for item key: vfs.fs.size[/,free]
    if we leave Units as "B", it should be able to accommodate values for GBs, MBs, KBs, and Bs as sent without the need for a custom multiplier.

    I have this item on Debian (lenny) servers.

    The disk space is in MBs but on Zabbix it is being collected (via active agents) as KBs.


    I've seen some more forum posts suggesting using of multipliers, we've tried but it doesnt scale with a drastically changing disk.

    Anyone zeroed on a practical solution on this?

    what agent versions do you have ? note that 1.6 agents returned diskspace in KB, 1.8 in B

      Wow,

      Looks like this was under my nose all the time.

      Some of these debian boxes ended up have 1.4.6 via repos.
      While the ones with 1.8.x are fine.

      Thanks a ton Richlv
