NCPA - Monitor multiple logical disks

[dmartins]

Hi Gang,

New to Nagios and we have NCPA agents running now and doing checks for disks, pings, memory etc. Question is, I can disk storage utilisation for Windows C: which is great but how do I do this for other logical partitions e.g. E:, F: and so on.

I'd prefer to use the NCPA so not sure if other plug-ins are

Thanks a bunch!

Daniel

Hello, with NSclient I do it in the following way

check_nt!USEDDISKSPACE!-l e -w 80 -c 90

there in bold and red I define the disk that I want to monitor

@dmartins, Please check out these commands:

The thresholds are triggered if the used space is greater than the supplied value.

Code: Select all

./check_ncpa.py -H 10.25.14.91 -t Str0ngT0k3n -M 'disk/logical/C:|/used_percent' --warning 90 --critical 95

The thresholds are triggered if the free space is less than the supplied value.

Code: Select all

./check_ncpa.py -H 10.25.14.91 -t Str0ngT0k3n -M 'disk/logical/C:|/free' --warning 10: --critical 5: -u G

You would just change the your command
for example if this is the command for C:

Code: Select all

./check_ncpa.py -H <ncpaserver> -t mytoken -M 'disk/logical/C:|'

This would be D:

Code: Select all

./check_ncpa.py -H <ncpaserver> -t mytoken -M 'disk/logical/D:|'

Hi Guys,

Thanks for the suggestions but remember we are utilising the NCPA agent. Perhaps I wasn't clear enough so here we go again.

As I previously mentioned we already have disk checking for single disks which is great, the service command is as followed:

check_ncpa -M 'disk/logical/C:|/used_percent' -w 90 -c 95 -u G

This command uses the check_ncpa.py script.

This is great for hosts with just a single partition, but not so for servers with more than one partition like Server SQL boxes, Linux boxes and so on.

I will post on the github site for support to.

Thanks,

Daniel

I see, are you looking to check all the disks in 1 check?
If so there is already a request for this and it will be coming in a future version

Yes that is what I was trying to look for Scott! I saw that too but was hoping something already existed

Should be out in the next minor I believe 2.2.0 but not 100% sure.
