11 Execute now

    Overview

    This functionality is supported for passive checks only. The following item types are supported:

    • Zabbix agent (passive)
    • SNMPv1/v2/v3 agent
    • IPMI agent
    • Zabbix internal
    • External check
    • Database monitor
    • JMX agent
    • SSH agent
    • Calculated
    • HTTP agent
    • Dependent item
    • Script

    The check must be present in the configuration cache in order to get executed; for more information see . Before executing the check, the configuration cache is not updated, thus very recent changes to item/discovery rule configuration will not be picked up. Therefore, it is also not possible to check for a new value for an item/rule that is being created or has been created just now; use the Test option while configuring an item for that.
