Disk Usage Report

[Parish, Brent]

Hi.

I'm guessing that some others on the list will weigh in with some better options for you, but if you'd like to have a look at what I use, I've posted it on Nagios Exchange (http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Plugins/System-Metrics/File-System/check_disk_snmp/details).

I ended up writing my own (in Perl) to get some of the extra features.  One of those features is an attempt to give you more information about the disk (e.g. what the threshold for alerting is set at, the percent full as well as how much is left:

DISK CRITICAL - [Threshold=95%, 96% full,14.1gb free on /snapshot] [Threshold=95%, 96% full,10.0gb free on /photos]

The rest of the features are detailed on that page.

Hope it helps,
Brent

Subject: [Nagios-users] Disk Usage Report

Hi guys.
I'm monitoring some AIX 5.3 servers, among other thing, the disk usage, when the service is restored, let's say, disk space return to the aceptable size I've get the notificatoin in this way:
DISK OK - free space: /var 588 MB (76% inode=96%):
Is there a way to configure nagios to instead reporting  the free/available disk space is, to report the % of used disk space instead?

Let's say:

DISK OK - free space: /var 50% , or 1500MB Used, or 50% or 1500MB or something like that,

The problem is that with this: DISK OK - free space: /var 588 MB (76% inode=96%) is that  I do not know the total amount, so., 588 MB of what? 1G? 2G?
Did I myself clear?


Thanks in addvance.
Best regards.
