How to monitor inodes for % used/free with NCPA

Post by dlukinski »

Hello Nagios Support

How we monitor inodes for % used/free with NCPA
- I could only see total inode counts, which is really not practical to maintain?

Thank you

Hi @dlukinski,

After doing some research on this, it would be easiest to use NCPA to call another plugin such as check_disk for to get this type of check setup. Let me know if that would work for you.
