Zabbix Agent Active: Trigger System time is out of sync not working!
Good morning everyone. I would like to raise a case:
I had a serious problem on a server with the time monitored through an installed and working active agent (6.4): I was not notified about the wrong system time of the Linux server.
I know fuzzytime's function (immediately checked the time on the server, db, fe, be, correctly synchronized with the NTP server) and the trigger.
There is a problem: fuzzytime only works with passive checks!
Using the active Zabbix Agent and the related template, the item "System local time" is a Zabbix active checks
How can we solve this in case an active agent is used to have a working trigger comparable to the passive one “System time is out of sync”?
Thank you,
Best Regard.
- Zabbix Server installed on Ubuntu 22.04 with Postgresql as DB (Zabbix version 6.4.5)
- Official Zabbix active agent template for Linux
- Item: System local time (system.localtime) of active type
- Trigger: “System time is out of sync” that uses fuzzytime
