Hi Mario,

Did you find a way to graph mount points ?
I have same issue over here but for Microsoft Exchange DAG mount point.

If someone have a clue, share please :)

Hi all,
I think my message title "BBwin 0.13 and mountpoints" sent to the Xymon list don´t reflect exactly what I was thinking.
What I really want is to modify the do_disk.c and not bbwin 0.13.
>From one side if we change the bbwin output maybe we could have the graphs working without changing the do_disk.c file on xymon.
But, I think that the easier way is to change the do_disk.c to read correctly the output data when we have a mountpoint on a windows server disk monitoring.
So, my question is how we can grab correctly the value and description on do_disk.c to create the correspondent rrd file on xymon.
I´ve made some attempts and modififcations without success on do_disk.c, they don´t create the rrds files I want.
The column[11] on the current line works when it has the "N/A" but don´t when it has a "J:\Tempdb\" mount point , for example.

Hi,
I have 2 cases here.
The first one is a SQL Server Cluster design.
And the second one is a Oracle Server with 6 database instances.
Each database has a separated mount point and this is used to make possible a restore in production for a single db using a recovery point tool.



Regards,
Mario

That seems like a really unusual filesystem structure. What's the reasoning behind that design?

Hi All,
I´m trying to fix the issue with the graphs creation for windows mountpoints and bbwin 0.13.
The issue is that we only have graphs for the single drive letters and not for the mountpoints using the bbwin 0.13.
Another problem is even if the graphs were working we could not have duplicated names for different drive letters.

I´ve already modified the winPSclient to consider the mountpoints and If I use this client I have all the graphs created without any problem.
But I don´t want to continue changing or adding a server agent everytime a server administrator configure a mountpoint in a server.
WinPSCLient output example where I have all graphs created:

I´ve tried some modifications on do_disk.c but without sucess.
I´ve created a new dsystype called DT_MOUNTPOINT:

else if (strstr(msg, "Mount Point")) dsystype = DT_MOUNTPOINT;
...
 if ( (dsystype == DT_MOUNTPOINT) && (*(columns[9])) && (strchr(columns[11], '/')) )
                dsystype = DT_MOUNTPOINT;
if ( (dsystype == DT_MOUNTPOINT) && (*(columns[9])) && (strchr(columns[11], ':')) )
                dsystype = DT_MOUNTPOINT;
And here at the "case DT_MOUNTPOINT" is where the things are not good.
I´ve tried to get the the column[11] but unfortunately we have backslashes.
I´ve tried several ways, but I´m not good in c as I would like to and after many many tests I´m asking for a help or if you can put this on Xymon todo list.
I´m using xymon 4.3.0-beta2 , sorry if this was already solved in the last version. I´ve checked the do_disk.c file on the last stable but couldn´t see this solution.

case DT_MOUNTPOINT:
                        diskname = xstrdup(columns[11]);
                        if (strstr(diskname, "N/A")) {
                        diskname = xstrdup(columns[0]);
                        }
                        else {
                        diskname = xstrdup(columns[11]);
                        }
                        /*sprintf(diskname, "/%s", columns[11]);*/
                        p = strchr(columns[4], '%'); if (p) *p = ' ';
                        pused = atoi(columns[4]);
                        aused = str2ll(columns[2], NULL);
                        break;
I´ve tried to use the diskname as columns[0] but doesn´t work for the mountpoints too.
The case DT_BBWin format that works for the winPSclient doesn´t work if I use the diskname as columns[0] or columns[11].

case DT_BBWIN:
            diskname = xmalloc(strlen(columns[0])+2);
            sprintf(diskname, "/%s", columns[0]);


Thanks in advance,
Mario
