Fairly new Zabbix user - I'm sure this is a 'me-issue' - I have read similar threads in this forum but I've not figured it out yet.
Zabbix 7.4 on Alma 9 - monitoring Windows server core clients with agent2 active
There are some services I do not want to monitor - e.g. 'StateRepository' - even though they are marked as auto start up in Windows, as they generate false positive warnings.
If I delete either the item or the trigger on that item, it comes back, due to auto discovery.
What I thought was the fix, was to add a new template, populating the Macros tab like this
But that isn't over-riding the Windows by Zabbix agent active template
What's the correct fix here?
I'd rather not do it per host (haven't tried)
I'd rather not alter the built in template as I think it would get over-ridden on zabbix updates?
I don't understand that 'template macros' vs 'inherited and template macros' choice either...
Comments appreciated
