How to configure disk usage notification by email

hi guys…

I’ve started using V3.0 beta. I think it works great. My network administrator needs to know when a hard disk usage goes over 90% and wants to be notified by email. I do find the disk probe and try to configure it but I still reveive the same kind of emails. do I need to configure different email notifications for different purposes ?

Thanks.

Create a new probe:

Type: function
Available: if(hdd_usage()>0, 1, -1)
Error: if(hdd_usage()<90, “”, “Disk usage > 89%”)
Value: hdd_usage()
Unit: %
Rate: none

Assign this probe to any device you want to monitor and configure the email notifications there.

Your sysop will then get this email:

Service Disk > 90% on > device_name > is now down (Disk usage > 89%)

when the device goes over 89% disk usage. (And another one when the device dips under 90% again.)

Note: this probe uses the built in hdd_usage function, so for devices with multiple hard disks it looks at the average disk space usage. Of course, the above example is easily adapted for a specific hard drive. Just replace ‘hdd_usage’ with the appropriate oid(“xxxxx”) call.

BRILLIANTTTT!!! :stuck_out_tongue: :stuck_out_tongue:

Greatest replyyy ever… Thanks buddy…

I configured the settings as my network administrator wants. But, after I changed that disk usage to mem usage, the email that I am receiving is changed to service Function (it does not say service memory etc.) I know I changed the action tab to memory instead of disk… do you know what might going on ?

And also is there a way to execute a snapshot of tha process when it hits above certain % ?

Thanks buddy.
