check_disk best practices

I'm looking for advice on the best way to set up disk monitoring (linux
specifically).  Every server I've been tasked to monitor is a little bit
different in how it is partitioned, so rather than have a service for each
partition and then keeping track of it all it makes sense to omit the -p and
have it generically check all filesystems.  The problem is that the current
stable check_disk does what looks like a "df -Pk" instead of a "df -Plk" so
I'm picking up mounted filesystems in the output.

I'd like some tips and tricks from the rest of you on how you handle
check_disk in your environments.

thanks in advance!
