Need to Monitor Other Volumes or Partition Of Linux

[sh.shekhar89]

Hi All,

I need to monitor other Volume or Partition of Linux host, By default for Linux host it will only show root partition. I need to monitor other partition too.

Can someone guide me how to do it?

Hi Tmcdonald,

I am not using any method to monitor the volumes. By default when i have installed nagios, its only showing root partition details. but requirement is to monitor all the partitions.

Can you share the current root partition's service configuration with us? It should be located in:

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/etc/services/localhost.cfg

We can then help you construct an additional command, or modify the current one, to hopefully get the information you need. It is likely using check_disk, and an example of running one service check agains multiple partitions is below:

Code: Select all

check_disk -w 10% -c 5% -p /tmp -p /var -C -w 100000 -c 50000 -p /

Which checks /tmp and /var at 10% and 5%, and / at 100MB and 50MB.
