Nagios monitoring extended partitions

Post by LMSSML »

Hi there,

I use nagios since for a while but now I've got a server to monitor wint W2003 using extended partitions but I couldn't monitor extended partitions are made with logical partiotions with the method of folders (one letter several folders).
Is ther anyway to monitor this type of things ?.

Thanks in advanced.

I'm not familiar with extended partitions. I'd be surprised if there wasn't a way to do what you want.

Probably the best place to start looking is on the wiki for the NSClient++ agent for Nagios. You will find that at http://nsclient.org/ . Even if one of the two 'standard' methods for monitoring disks in NSClient++ doesn't give you what you want, you can probably set up a check in NSClient++ using a Windows performance counter or WMI.
