Windows Free Disk Space on Multiple Logical Disks

[Chris_____]

Hi,

I'm just in the process of setting up Zabbix (version 2.2.3), and have come across an issue that I'm hoping someone can help with.

I'd like to monitor free disk space on a number of Windows machines, each with different logical disks (i.e. all have C:\, some have D:\, some have E:\ etc.). The issue is that I don't want to specify the logical disk(s) per machine as this would take a lot of time and was wondering if it was possible to monitor disk space on each logical volume without specifying the letter?

At the moment I have the item defined as

perf_counter[\LogicalDisk(C:)\% Free Space,0]

And the trigger defined as

{HOSTNAME:perf_counter[\LogicalDisk(C:)\% Free Space,0].avg(300)}<15

If anyone can provide a solution or point me in the right direction that would be great.


Thanks,

Chris

That is actually part of the LLD (Low Level Discovery) rules that are part of the Template OS Windows template.

If you attach this template to your windows servers, the Mounted Filesystem LLD rule will take up to an hour to discover the drives on your servers and will automatically create graphs for you that show total and free disk space.

Thanks for the pointer tchjts1, that looks to be exactly what I was after!

Thanks again,

Chris

You're welcome. If you need more help with it, let me know.
I believe there are also default triggers in the LLD for low disk space. You can modify these to suit your needs.
