Monitoring Disk Space by Size, rather than by percentage
Posted: Thu Dec 22, 2016 10:25 am
Good afternoon - one last one before Christmas..!
I want to be able to monitor disk space by available size, rather than available percentage.
I have Googled and found the following solution at http://serverfault.com/questions/309913 ... heck-nt-co
As suggested, I used VIM to create /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_disk_by_size.sh which looks like this (the third version of the script)
I then did chmod +x check_disk_by_size.sh (which I believe I need to do to make it executable, but I may be wrong)
The syntax to run a manual check is stated as (for example):
but when I try this with one of my servers, I get:
Indicating that my syntax is wrong somewhere - can anyone suggest where I'm going wrong, please - or should I just download the approved plugin from https://exchange.nagios.org/directory/P ... ce/details ?
Cheers and thanks in advance!

# Purpose: A wrapper script for check_nt to set threshold for exact space
# free rather than just percentage. Useful on VERY large drives.
# Example: check_disk_by_size.sh -H 192.168.0.1 -l c -w 10240 -c 5120

The syntax to run a manual check is stated as (for example):
Code: Select all
./check_disk_by_size.sh -s "NyNagiosPassword" -H 192.168.999.999 -l c -w 14240 -c 5120
Code: Select all
./check_disk_by_size.sh -H host [-s password] [-p port] [-w warning] [-c critical] [-l params]
