    Mark a hostname problem as resolved in Zabbix

    I am fairly new to using Zabbix, and I have added a few hosts to it while doing my initial tests with the platform.

    When doing this configuration, I have misconfigured a few things, such as leaving the hostname incorrect in one of the agents. When I finally fixed the agent hostname in the agent configuration file, it started appearing as a problem in Zabbix dashboard.

    It states that "Host name of zabbix_agentd was changed on [my.monitored.host.tld]". This is a false positive, it was not a problem but in fact a correction. tellgamestop

    I want to leave this trigger on, but I would like to be able to mark this as resolved as it was a configuration change, and not a problem due to files being changed inadvertently.

    How can I do this? Is the only way to do this having to change the trigger to allow manual closing? And if so, where do I access that? I tried going to the host, clicking on the triggers that are on that host, then select the "host name" trigger, but I see the manual close checkbox disabled.

    Hi, you need to configure the trigger to allow manual close. If the trigger is coming from a template, you need to configure that in the template, not on the host. Then you can close (new) triggered events by clicking the link in the ack column of the problem list.

    Alternatively, you can acknowledge the problem (using the same link) and adjust the problem list view so that it does not show acknowledged events.
