Zabbix false alarms

[fsousa]

Hello,

I'm using the Zabbix Server version 3.4.1. I've facing some troubles with my server.

I'm receive too many false alerts, I know the alarms are false because when I receive the alert from specific host if I run the zabbix_get command in the server to that host, it responds.

The error I got: "Zabbix agent on sp3.cbr.srv is unreachable for 5 minutes"

Have you ever had this problem?

Any help would really be appreciated.

Thank you.

Make sure you have good connection between the server and the agent. By default connection timeout is 3 seconds. See how much time takes zabbix_get when run from Zabbix server host:

$ time zabbix_get -s <agent IP> -p <agent port> -k system.uptime
1139851

real    0m0.004s
user    0m0.000s
sys     0m0.000s

It is important to run this command from Zabbix server host.

P. S. It's time to upgrade, 3.4.11 was out recently. :-)

Hello @dimir,

Thank you for your reply.

My time when I run the command time zabbix_get are:

[root@zabbix ~]# time zabbix_get -s webgw.cbr.srv.wit -p 10050 -k system.uptime
17279044

real 0m0.009s
user 0m0.001s
sys 0m0.004s

P.S. Shortly I will upgrade my server to the latest version.
