Host Status on win32 not updating (Zabbix 1.1)

[redhead]

I noticed that on zabbix's 1.1, correct the status
give of a unix host, but will not give or update any
windows host.

win32.notebook Host status - - - Graph
unix.server Host status 08 Jun 17:33:23 0 -2 Graph

I check everthing twice, but the items are the same,
and should be work.

Solution:

Now I found the problem for win32 hosts, on unix this is already
working. The solution is, make a item for a win32 template
or win32 host;

Description Ping host
Type ZABBIX agent
Key agent.ping
Units
Do not use Custom multiplier
Update interval 60
Keep history 1
Keep trends 1
Status Monitored
Store value As is

The value will be always 1 (if its being checked), so in
the first place I deleted this item, because it's always
the same online or offline, but then I get no update of the host status
anymore.

So you have then,

1 item on host with key "status",
Description Host status
Type ZABBIX agent
Key status
Units
Do not use Custom multiplier
Update interval 60
Keep history 365
Keep trends 365
Status Monitored
Store value As is

1 item on host with key "agent.ping",
Description Ping host
Type ZABBIX agent
Key agent.ping
Units
Do not use Custom multiplier
Update interval 60
Keep history 1
Keep trends 1
Status Monitored
Store value As is

1 trigger for the status item
name {HOSTNAME} is unreachable
Expression {Windows_t:status.last(0)}=2

Maybe this is the problem that's more boys and girls have

This is maybe not the best solution, but the host status is working now.

Zabbix is a verry great tool, keep up the nice work !
