The check plugins {{ucs_bladecenter_fans.temp}} and {{ucs_bladecenter_psu.chassis_temp}} created same item names and both use the WATO ruleset {{Temperature}}. That means that if a rule applied to a service generated by one of these check plugins, this rule automatically applied to the related one, too. No distinction was possible.

You have to perform a rediscovery on the affected hosts. Performance data will be preserved.

Example: ucs_bladecenter_fans.temp generated the services - Temperature Ambient Chassis 1 FAN - Temperature Ambient Chassis 2 FAN

and ucs_bladecenter_psu.chassis_temp generated the services - Temperature Ambient Chassis 1 - Temperature Ambient Chassis 2

the item names were {{Ambient Chassis 1}} and {{Ambient Chassis 2}} in both cases. The temperature rule matching the sensor ID {{Ambient Chassis.*}} automatically applied to all four services.

Now the item names for ucs_bladecenter_fans.temp look like - {{Ambient Chassis 1 FAN}} - {{Ambient Chassis 2 FAN}}

and for ucs_bladecenter_psu.chassis_temp - {{Ambient Chassis 1}} - {{Ambient Chassis 2}}

Independent rules may be created in the following order: - {{Ambient Chassis.FAN}} - {{Ambient Chassis.}}
