Zabbix 6.4: nodata does not work on zero data

[robert.ortel]

Hi,

I have a trapper item which only gets data once a week. On that same item is a nodata trigger to create a warning if latest data is older than a week. But as long as absolutly zero data has reached that item, the nodata trigger does not work:


Cannot evaluate function nodata(/ASM_DBBaufi/oracle.asm_dg_health_check_result["DG_DATA_01_MTP2"],8d): item does not have enough data after server start or item creation.



But this is exactly one situation I need it to fire as well. Any ideas on how to make that work?


Regards,
Robert

I have to add: documentation clarifies that this here is expected behaviour (even though I would want it to be different).

See: https://www.zabbix.com/documentation...=nodata#nodata

This function will display an error if, within the period of the 1st parameter:

• there's no data and Zabbix server was restarted
• there's no data and maintenance was completed
• there's no data and the item was added or re-enabled <=== my case here

But are there any other idea to make this work?

Regards,
Robert
