Issues when configuring AND as the condition with Triggers

[Shane Hutter]

Hi Zabbix community,

I've been having issues getting an Action to work when using AND in the condition with triggers.

My Triggers:
I have setup 5 squid, non-caching web proxies that my Zabbix server has access to use. I have then set up 5 Httptests, each check for a string on a site, and each proxy through one of the squid proxies.

My Action:

I have set this action up to check if all the triggers are set off, then a Slack message will be sent out. If I set it up using AND for the operation type, no Slack message is sent. If I set this up with OR, I will receive 5 simultaneous Slack messages, when I take the site offline.

I've kept my eye on the triggers, and they all go off, very near each other (in a matter of milliseconds)

Is there a time frame in which these triggers need to go off for the AND to be accepted?
Do you have any advice on how I could get this AND condition to work?

Thank you in advance.

I've worked out the issue for this. You cannot use the `and` condition for multiple triggers in an action. Instead, I needed to create a single trigger, with and for each of the expressions in the other 5 triggers.

({zabbix_host:web.test.fail[zabbixtest.intentropycs.com_be_1].last()}=1 and {zabbix_host:web.test.fail[zabbixtest.intentropycs.com_me_1].last()}=1 and {zabbix_host:web.test.fail[zabbixtest.intentropycs.com_nz_1].last()}=1 and {zabbix_host:web.test.fail[zabbixtest.intentropycs.com_pe_1].last()}=1 and {zabbix_host:web.test.fail[zabbixtest.intentropycs.com_sy_proxy].last()}=1)

Then I create an action that looks for this single trigger.
