<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">We had one of our postgres database servers go offline this morning since its data partition got 100% full. Xymon didn't alert us since the xymon client was running as user xymon and didn't have permission to the postgres
data directory (i.e. df gave a permission denied). I worked around it by changing the client on this server to run as root rather than xymon but is there a better way to give the client privileged access to do its checks than running the client as root?</p>
