How to monitor microsoft clustered disk

[dalle]

There is a way to keep monitored a microsoft clustered disk, and in particular disk on MSSQL cluster?
The problem is that one lun is mounted from two or more servers, and only on server that has really mounted and has in use this lun you can retrieve data about free space etc.. on other servers you receive "not supported", the ploblem is when a server switch between one node to another one you don't receive more data about free space on disk (because disks follow the MSSQL Server).
I've tried with "perf_counter" way and with the more usual way of agent.
There is a way for do that?
many thanks in advance

Monitor the Cluster Itself

Hey Dalle,

What we have done here is to install the Zabbix Agent on all of the servers in the cluster.

IE:
THING1 (cluster server 1)----\
----------------------------------|-----> DRSEUSS (cluster's network name)
THING2 (cluster server 2)----/

Install the Zabbix Agent on THING1 and THING2 ... then add inidividual hosts for THING1 and THING2... AND add one for DRSEUSS -- Setup all of your alters and triggers for the SQL Cluster to pull from the status of DRSEUSS.

That way the Zabbix Agent always follows the Clustered disk around.

I hope that makes sense!

See Yas!

Zabbix discovery

I'm doing it now using disk discovery rules, but what if the disk fails?
Fail over occurred once here and I've not received any e-mails about unavailable disks, and the monitoring process just continued at the another server, like nothing happened.

Hii guys,
I am new in Zabbix Monitoring.
Right now I already use zabbix for monitoring my Windows Hyper-V Cluster.
I already use dafyre idea, install zabbix agent on Server 1 and 2, I also input the Cluster-Name on Zabbix-Host Monitoring.
but i have issue with the Quorum Disk,, when the Quorum on Server 1, Server 2 Triggres have alert "The trigger is not discovered anymore and will be deleted in xxDay xxHour xxMinutes"

Is it there is idea the best practice for Monitoring Hyper-V Cluster in Zabbix Monitoring??
thanks Before
