Trigger for multiple severity levels

[doub]

Hi,

I would like to implement a generic trigger for a file system size item.
It should be generic in a way that by receiving a value of less than 10% a Warning should be generated and in case of a value less than 5% an Average. I cloned the 10% Trigger in -Trigger prototypes of Mounted filesystem discovery- and changed it to 5% but this does not work out well as I receive two alerts. One for 10% and one for 5% but I would like to have it changed generically from 10% to 5% so it is visible in the Dashboard view just once.

Any help is appreciated.

This should be possible. Basically you want to setup a trigger depency between your two triggers. You want to make it so that the 10% trigger is dependent on the 5% trigger. This way, if the 5% trigger is tripped, the 10% won't fire, because the dependency isn't met.

Look at the documentation here, as it explains how it works:

https://www.zabbix.com/documentation/2.0/manual/config/triggers/dependencies

The example at the end makes it a bit easier to grasp.

When using trigger prototypes used in low level discovery, you can't make them dependent on each other (ZBXNEXT-1229) and will have to integrate the dependency logic inside your trigger expression:

Trigger for 10%:

( item.last<10 || item.last()=10 ) && item.last()>5

Trigger for 5%:

item.last()<5 || item.last()=5

@chojin:
Thanks, that's what I meant - the dependencies tab is not available for trigger prototypes. I will try the trigger expressions as described by you.
