We have proxy-agent relationship in which I want to make agent not reachable trigger to be dependent on proxy not reachable.
Setup we have say for example : Zabb-Prxy(Proxy) monitors Zabb-Agnt(Agent).

I created two triggers as follows:
On Zabb-Prxy Node: Have trigger "Agent not found for 3 minutes"
Trigger Expression: {ip-10-4-1-28.ec2.internal:agent.ping.nodata(3m)}=1

On Zabb-Agnt Node:Have trigger "Agent not found for 5 minutes"
Trigger Expression: {ip-10-4-1-11.ec2.internal:agent.ping.nodata(5m)}=1 ---->Depends on Zabb-Prxy: Have trigger "Agent not found for 3 minutes"

I used depedency option in the create trigger window for zabb-agent to configure it as dependent on proxy.

I am gettting why is not workig as expected I am getting notification mail for both the nodes It really frustrating.

Expected / Aim : If proxy is down I should get notification mail only for proxy and not for agent.

I am referring to this url.

Actual: I am getting mail for both the node, Proxy is down and agent is down. I am not what I have missed or doing worngly. Need help Even if someone let me know how I can debug it. That will save life.. Any help greatly appreciated

Thanks in advance.

  • (1) On Zabb-Prxy node, is the agent monitored by server or proxy? (2) When the proxy goes down, does the agent on Zabb-Prxy node go down, too? – asaveljevs Jun 12 '14 at 13:29
  • No @asaveljevs . The Scenario is when I shutdown proxy service on zab-proxy node. Zabb-server thinks that nodes(monitored by zabb-proxy) is also down though the agent process is running on them. Only proxy service is down on the zabb-proxy node – A_01 Jun 25 '14 at 09:58
