Empty widgets after upgrading to Zabbix 7.0<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\nFor this dashboard to display the much needed information correct I had to change a few of the widgets so they select the right items. Per widget I have included the state I found it in and the state (with selected items) afterwards.
Values processed per second<\/h2>\n\n\n\n At first I changed the values processed per second<\/strong> widget. For this I had to change the selected items to Number of processed* values per second<\/strong>. This selects all items starting with Number or processed<\/strong> and ends with values per second<\/strong> for the selected host in this widget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

For this I had to change the selected items to Utilization of * data collector*<\/strong>. This selects all items starting with Utilization of<\/strong> and also has data collector<\/strong> in its name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

I had to change the selected items in this widget to Utilization of *internal processes*<\/strong>. This selects all items for the hosts which start with Utilization of<\/strong> and also has internal processes<\/strong> in its name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

So this exercise proved to help me getting a better insight for my Zabbix server :-).Value cache hits<\/strong> and for the second dataset to Value cache misses<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

Also in this widget I saw I hadn’t changed everything to the right server a few weeks ago, so also a great update for my dashboard! :-).Queue<\/strong>, Queue over 10 minutes<\/strong>, Preprocessing queue<\/strong> and LLD queue<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nDon’t forget to also add two new queues to this graphs, that should be Connector queue<\/strong> and Discovery queue<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

After the changes it looked like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\tAs I’ve upgraded Zabbix to 7.0 LTS, I found some dashboards not displaying information anymore.
