Monitor a folder

[metrozabbix]

Hello all,

I would like monitor a folder, but i don't know the procedure..
I have zabbix agent on my computer Windows 7 to be able monitor this.
I looked on the Internet, i must write a command line in the zabbix agent with "UserParemeter=" and then configure the sensor personalized on zabbix (I don't know if there is other methods).
Can you help me ?

Best regards

What kind do you want monitoring for folder?

Example : Folder used size check script

c:\tools\foldersize.vbs
-----
Set objFSO = WScript.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
WScript.Echo objFSO.GetFolder("C:\Temp").Size
-----

Execute on comand prompt:
cscript //Nologo c:\tools\foldersize.vbs

You call this script from UserParameter.
But, If you use parameter include '\', you must set UnsafeUserParameters in zabbix_agentd.conf.

zabbix_agentd.conf
-----
UnsafeUserParameters=1
-----

Another information :
Count number files into a windows directory

Thanks for your answer

I created script to report folder size in a file taillerep.vbs :

Dim objFSO , objFolder, sLoc

Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
sLoc = WScript.Arguments(0)

If objFSO.FolderExists(sLoc) Then
Set objFolder = objFSO.GetFolder(sLoc)
WScript.StdOut.Write objFolder.Size
'msgbox objFolder.Size
' wscript.Echo objFolder.Size
Else
WScript.StdOut.Write -1
' wscript.Echo "Fodler does not exist."
End If

Set objFolder = Nothing
Set objFSO = Nothing
WScript.Quit(0)

In my zabbix_agentd.conf :

Server=172.20.16.117
Hostname=dt10y8p4j
UnsafeUserParameters=1
UserParameter=fsiz[*],cscript //nologo taillerep.vbs "$1"

then, I check with launching agent manually and locally and i receive an answer.

I created an item in Zabbix



And I created a graph in Zabbix



But, i've no data in my graph :/

Best regards,


PS: Verification that agent and script run well

what said the log? or what said the Error-Message in Zabbix?

Do you restart the agent?

did you try this from you zabbix-server

zabbix_get -s <YOU-WINDOWS-SERVER> -k fsiz[*]

[metrozabbix]

It's works ! I think that I have an error in the key field of item.

But for your command :

zabbix_get -s <YOU-WINDOWS-SERVER> -k fsiz[*]

I've got this error :

zabbix_get [5532]: Get value error: cannot connect to [[172.20.16.117]:10050]: [0x0000274C] Une tentative de connexion a ├®chou├® car le parti connect├® nÔÇÖa pas r├®pondu convenablement au-del├á dÔÇÖune certaine dur├®e ou une connexion ├®tablie a ├®chou├® car lÔÇÖh├┤te de connexion nÔÇÖa

Best regards.
