Zabbix agent on is unreachable for 5 minutes

Question

I used zabbix 2.4 and it worked perfectly. I decided to upgrade server and all agents to 3.0 LTS. I did not change any settings in agents and server conf-files and did not change any settings wia web.

But now I receive messages

Zabbix agent %servername% on is unreachable for 5 minutes

This agent works on the same machine with zabbix-server. More strange that I receive other messages from this agent. So I can see that agent works and server can communicate with it.

After I started to receive this error message I tried to change IP of agent. First it was 127.0.0.1, after I changed address to network's IP: 192.168.x.x. Nothing changed. I receive unreachable message every 6-7 minutes with the other messages from this agent. And also this agent is green via web-interface.

zabbix_get -s 127.0.0.1 -k agent.ping

also returns 1.

How to fix problem?

Answer 3
