{ITEM.VALUE} Dont work!

[fableman]

This is the layout of my email message I send out when something is trigerd:

LARM STATUS: {STATUS}
---------------------------------------------
TIME: {TIME}
HOST NAME: {HOSTNAME}
IP: {IPADDRESS}
LARM TRIGGER: {TRIGGER.NAME}
SEVERITY: {TRIGGER.SEVERITY}
LARM VALUE: {ITEM.VALUE}
LOCATION: {PROFILE.LOCATION}
---------------------------------------------

But the {ITEM.VALUE} Dont work!

Iam doing it wrong or is it a bug?

Why it should? The triggers is supposed to work for trigger descriptions (names) only.

Regarding to your Documentation is say.

{ITEM.VALUE}
{ITEM.VALUE1}
…
{ITEM.VALUE9}
X The latest value of Nth item of
the trigger expression if used
for displaying triggers.
Historical (when event
happenned) value of Nth item
of the trigger expression if used
for displaying events.

Soo why souldent ITEM.VALUE then give me output of latest value it got ?

I missunderstood it all ? (I use it in Action not in Tiggers.)

When you look in the documentation, you have to look at the items which has a cross/mark in the first column, they are the only one which works in actions.

So - is there a way of getting this historical information in an action?
