Hi
I am monitoring logs using Zabbix.
I am trying to monitor a log file using Zabbix 1.8.4.
I created an item using the following details:
Host: Zabbix server Description: logger_test Type: Zabbix agent (active) Key: log[/tmp/scribetest/test3/test3_current,error,,100] Type of Infromation: Log Update interval (in sec): 1 sec Keep history (in days): 90 Status: Active Applications: Log files
I created a trigger and attached it with the item logger_test using the following details.
Name: logger_test_trigger Expression: {Zabbix server:log[/tmp/scribetest/test3/test3_current,error,,100].str(error)}=1 Severity: disaster
The above settings works fine for the first time but next time the trigger shows ZBX_NOTSUPPORTED and after that item also shows "not supported" message.
Can you please tell me if anything I am doing wrong here ?
Warm Regards
Supratik
