Windows Mount Points

[paul.jobb]

What would be the best method to collect utilization information from Windows Mount points? preferably without having to install an agent. Are there any examples for doing this with WMI?

paul.jobb,

I responded to the email thread and in an effort to keep this conversation single threaded let us continue the discussion in that email.

for anyone interested I added the following to the /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_wmi_plus.ini file

[checkmountpoint]
slashconversion=1
query=Select Name, FreeSpace, Capacity from Win32_Volume where Name = "{_arg1}"
customfield=_FreeSpacePercent,percent,FreeSpace,Capacity,%.1f,
customfield=_Used%,percent,FreeSpace,Capacity,%.1f,100
test=_Used%
display=_DisplayMsg||~|~| - ||
display=Name||~|~| ||
display=Capacity|#|Total||||
display=FreeSpace|#|Free|| ||
display=_FreeSpacePercent|%|~|~||(|)

In the service management common Settings screen Set $ARG3$ = checkmountpoint and $ARG4$ = -a 'G:/dirnamehere/subdirnamehere/' -w 80 -c 95 -t 60
the server I was testing against timed out after 15 seconds so -t allowed me to bump up the timeout to a minute, only reason I used it.
