Filesystem monitoring

[dsipe]

Hye,

I tried to monitoring %free space on a Linux filesystem and a Windows C: drive.

I create the following items :

vfs.fs.size[/home,pfree] for Linux
vfs.fs.size[c:,pfree] for windows

Both of them are flagged "not supported".

Any ideas ?

If that's not correct, what's the right approach to monitor free disk space in percentage under Windows & Linux ?

Thanks 2 all

Just a thought

are you using float ?

integer will create this error

thanks a lot for y answer.

it's ok now on AIX box with the float type.

but it always go wrong on the windows one....

Looks to me like Percent free is not supported by ZabbixW32.exe
Zabbix Win32 Agent Version 1.1 Build of Jun 5 2006

zabbix server = 1.1.3

Upgrade your Windows agent to 1.1.3 to make it work.

You should use a Win32 agent more recent (see http://www.zabbix.com/forum/showthre...ighlight=pfree )

For example NSIS install packages from Scotty

ok, thanks to all for your answers.

it's ok now.

instead of using the windows binaries included in the tar.gz, i use the one on the download page [ windows binaries 1.1 ], believing that there were the most up-to-date.

thanks again.

I'm not having any luck using pfree on 1.1.4 server and client on XP. When creating an item Zabbix agent, vfs.fs.size[c:,pfree], Num Float, my results are 0 however on the server doing the following:
-su-2.05b# zabbix_get -s dino -k vfs.fs.size[c:,pfree]
83.892256

So it works on the server...

[dantheman]

If you look at the item definition, is there a custom multiplier set? If so, it's not at 0 is it?

[luketrot]

The multiplier is disabled, I tried enabling it and adding 1 without any luck as well. I'm completely stumped.

Hi All,
I want to monitor the windows server and would like to create a trigger if the disk space reached to 98.5% . I am unable to create a trigger for the percentage . Please help me out . As I am using the windows zabbix agent version 1.8.2 and server 1.8.1

Thanks,
