[hobbit] HOWTO monitored NFS

I highly recommend against disabling the local only df test.  As Michael points out, it will hang for a long time.  Not only hang but leave behind a LOT of df processes that can only be killed by rebooting the server...at least, kill -9 never works for me.  This is most likely due to the fact that it is waiting on a child to finish.

And may hang for a long time if the nfs server is down!

try looking on http://www.deadcat.net/ for a script.
I use one from there with a number of changes to fit my situation .

Hello,



I wish monitored sharing NFS on my servers like classic disks.

What is the best way to monitored NFS and apply the thresholds?

And how to proceed to monitored that ?







When I define the share NFS on "localclient.cfg", it doesn't work.

DISK    /mnt/test   70 95



I have try yet "rpc=nfs" in bb-hosts, but don't have graph and alerts.



The linux hobbit client uses (file hobbitclient-linux.sh)

df -Pl

And from the manpages:

       -l, --local

              limit listing to local file systems



So remove the "l" and the hobbit client will reporting all file systems.
