Zabbix aggregate check Incorrect function expression

  • 772

I'm trying to get an aggregated value over the latency from all datastores from all ESXi hosts.

I tried these variants of the grpmax aggregation function:

grpmax["Hypervisors","vmware.hv.datastore.read[{$URL},{HOST.HOST},,latency]",avg,600]
grpmax["Hypervisors","vmware.hv.datastore.read[,,,latency]",avg,600]

But for both I'm getting the error message:

Incorrect function expression: grpmax["Hypervisors","vmware.hv.datastore.read[,,,latency]",avg,600]

How do I have to enter the keys so that zabbix finds them in the aggregation?

The keys of the items I want to aggregate look like this:

vmware.hv.datastore.read[{$URL},{HOST.HOST},datastore1,latency]
vmware.hv.datastore.read[{$URL},{HOST.HOST},datastore2,latency]
vmware.hv.datastore.read[{$URL},{HOST.HOST},datastore3,latency]
zabbix

    You can only aggregate items with the same key. In your example, you have datastore1, datastore2 and datastore3. Zabbix aggregate items do not support wildcards, there is a feature request to allow that.
