Email message confusing

[sbdcunha]

I have recently added some RAC Servers and and I have a small confusion regarding the email that I have received when the CPU temp exceeds the threshold value

Subject:
Problem: CPU1 Temp: Temperature is above warning threshold: >70

Message:
Problem started at 03:58:45 on 2025.07.03
Problem name: CPU1 Temp: Temperature is above warning threshold: >70
Host:: HostName_DR IDRAC1
Severity: Warning
Operational data: Current value: 63 °C
Original problem ID: 177125845

Now as seen above operational data current value is 63 and it says that --- CPU1 Temp: Temperature is above warning threshold: >70 hence it sends a email
Is this a false positive that the email is fired or am I interpreting the message wrongly
Appreciate and very grateful if someone can clarify the above

Thanks and Regards

What are the problem and recovery expressions in the trigger?

Dear Marku
thanks for your quick response

problem expression:

avg(/Nutanix_DR IDRAC1/sensor.temp.value[temperatureProbeReading.CPU.1.1],5m)>{$TEMP_CRIT:"CPU"}
or
last(/Nutanix_DR IDRAC1/sensor.temp.status[temperatureProbeStatus.CPU.1.1])={$TEMP_CRIT_STATUS}
or
last(/Nutanix_DR IDRAC1/sensor.temp.status[temperatureProbeStatus.CPU.1.1])={$TEMP_DISASTER_STATUS} zz0.ix1aou670sizz

recovery expression
max(/Nutanix_DR IDRAC1/sensor.temp.value[temperatureProbeReading.CPU.1.1],5m)<{$TEMP_CRIT:"CPU"}-3

The above is what i see..
appreciate your assistance

thanks and regards

So now you see that it is not just the temperature value item that affects the trigger, also the temperature probe status is considered.

As mentioned in the configuration manual (https://www.zabbix.com/documentation...iggers/trigger), the problem expression must evaluate to FALSE as well as the recovery expression evaluate to TRUE in order the problem to recover.
