Problem with action conditions

[BSouza]

CONTEXT:

At my environment I setup Zabbix triggers names with "key names" that represent IT teams. For example:

[Unix-TEAM] Host unavailable
[Backup-TEAM] Backup client unavailable

Then I use these "key names" to alert specifics groups of people about the incident.

I use Zabbix 1.4 upgraded from 1.1.6.

PROBLEM:

I have actions configured like that:

Name: Backup messages
Event source: Triggers
Type of calculation: AND
Conditions: Trigger description like "Backup-TEAM"
Trigger value = "TRUE"
Operations: Send message to Group "Backup-TEAM"

Name: Unix Messages
Event source: Triggers
Type of calculation: AND
Conditions: Trigger description like "Unix-TEAM"
Trigger value = "TRUE"
Operations: Send message to Group "Unix-TEAM"

When, for example, trigger "[Unix-TEAM] Host unavailable" is "On", messages are sent to groups Unix-TEAM and Backup-TEAM, when they should just be sent to Unix-TEAM. The same problem occurs when I use "Host group" or "Trigger severity" to form conditions.

Anyone has the same problem? Am I doing something wrong?

You're doing everything fine. Fixed and the patch is attached.

how to use a patch ?

hi

thx 4 the patch but how do i apply this patch? never try before

[Alexei]

Go to the directory where untarred ZABBIX sources are:

patch -p0 <actions.patch

[BusteR81]

thereafter?

forgive mi but i would like to ask again should i recompile (./configure) after i apply the patch ?

what do u mean by untarred zabbix src ? i found my actions.c here:
/home/zabbix/zabbix-1.4/src/zabbix_server/actions.c

should run patch from ...

/home/zabbix/zabbix-1.4/ patch -p0 <actions.patch OR

/home/zabbix/zabbix-1.4/src/ patch -p0 <actions.patch OR

/home/zabbix/zabbix-1.4/src/zabbix_server/ patch -p0 <actions.patch

Cheers

After applying the batch

Dear
I applied the batch as you said, but after this Zabbix server stops after short time with unknown reson...

Would you please advise me.

[Aly]

This patch is meant for zabbix v.1.4 or 1.4.1. So just update to latest stable release.

[nebrassal]

Dear
I have the version 1.4.4, and I have applied the patch.
So what can I do to revert to the stable version???
