Monitoring fileshare drive?

[DerekNagiosXI]

Hello, seeking guidance to monitor a few fileshare drives for customer. They provided url, I do see an oracle config wizard for Nagios which would require username and password but wanted to check if a more easy way to just monitor the fileshare location by setting up the url?

What type of file share is it? CIFS/NFS/etc?

What type of device/OS is the file share stored on?

You could mount the share up to the XI system and then use Configure > Configuration Wizards > Mountpoint wizard.

Thanks for the response.

File share is NFS.
OS is Windows server 2016.

Windows mappings are mapped per-user session by default so it would need to be mapped as the SYSTEM user in order for it to be seen by an agent such as NCPA (or by running the service as the user it's mapped as) which is generally when I recommend this:

How are you currently monitoring those Server 2016 systems (WMI/SNMP/SSH or an agent such as NCPA)? Or are you?
