HTTP template operation
Steps to ensure correct operation of templates that collect metrics with HTTP agent:
1. Create a host in Áú»¢¶Ä²© and specify an IP address or DNS name of the monitoring target as the main interface. This is needed for the {HOST.CONN} macro to resolve properly in the template items.
2. Link the template to the host created in step 1 (if the template is not available in your Áú»¢¶Ä²© installation, you may need to import the template's .xml file first - see Templates out-of-the-box section for instructions).
3. Adjust the values of mandatory macros as needed.
4. Configure the instance being monitored to allow sharing data with Áú»¢¶Ä²© - see instructions in the Additional steps/comments column.
This page contains only a minimum set of macros and setup steps that are required for proper template operation. A detailed description of a template, including the full list of macros, items and triggers, is available in the template's Readme.md file (accessible by clicking on a template name).
