"Force check now" in zabbix 2.2.1

  • 772

If any of you know if there is a possibility of implementation "Force check now" just like in Nagios? the problem is that some check have a high update interval time for example 10 minutes, and sometimes there is a need to test something quickly.

In Zabbix Jira i found something like that's : https://support.zabbix.com/browse/ZBXNEXT-473

Please give me some advice

  1. On the server, there is a command `zabbix_get' which exactly try the value of the key immediately.

    sudo zabbix_get -s hostNameOrIP -k keyName

    So easy!

  2. One (quirky) way might be to visit the configuration for your problematic host, then choose Triggers, then configure the alarming trigger, choose Expression constructor and from there Test.

    I know this might not perform exactly what you are after for, but it's better than nothing.
