13 What's new in Zabbix 4.2.8

Cisco UCS server template

A Cisco UCS server monitoring template - Template Server Cisco UCS SNMPv2 has been added.

It will be available in Configuration → Templates in new installations. If you are upgrading from previous versions, you can find this template in the templates directory of the downloaded latest Zabbix version. Then, while in Configuration → Templates you can import it manually into Zabbix.

Macros

A new {EVENT.RECOVERY.NAME} macro is supported, returning the recovery event name.

{TRIGGER.ID} macro is now supported in trigger tag values. It may be useful for identifying triggers created from trigger prototypes and, for example, suppressing problems from these triggers during maintenance.

JSONPath preprocessing

Quoted numeric values are now accepted by the JSONPath aggregate functions (sum, min, max, etc.) in item value preprocessing. It means that the values are converted from string type to numeric if aggregation is required.

Acknowledged problems in trigger overview

The icon that indicates an acknowledged problem in Monitoring → Overview now is displayed only if all problems or resolved problems of the trigger are acknowledged. Previously it was enough for the last problem to be acknowledged.
