Multiple disk definitions

[Everett, Vernon]

Yep, am doing that.
However, what I am looking for is a way to do something like this

HOST=*
        DISK    /data1    85    90
        DISK    /data1    10485760U 5242880U

And have some kind of "best-case" or "worst-case" logic.
Worst case would check both cases, and report the worst result.
Best case, does the same, but reports the best result.

I know I am probably looking for the impossible, but a man can hope :-)

Cheers
    Vernon

Hi Vernon,

Check the man page for hobbit-clients.cfg...

http://www.hswn.dk/hobbit/help/manpages/man5/hobbit-clients.cfg.5.html#lbAG

You can specify disk sizes by free space by appending "U" e.g.

HOST=sap-sid-sv1
        DISK /oracle/SID/saparch 80 90
        DISK /oracle/SID/sapdata1 10485760U 5242880U

The disk for saparch is monitored by percentage, and sapdata1 warns at 10GB free and panics and 5GB free.

Regards,
Andy.

Hi all

Anybody had any experience trying to define multiple disk definitions.
I have a range of servers, which for whatever reason, have highly variable partition sizes.

E.g.     ServerA /data1          2Tb
                /data2          200mb

        ServerB /data1          800gb
                /data2          4Tb
                /data3          20gb

Setting a blanket value of
        DISK    *       90      95
Will not give good results, because on a 4Tb volume, 90% is still 400Gb available, while on a 200mb volume, this is only 20mb

What I would like to do, is define a percent or absolute, based on disk size.
Is this possible?

There are many more servers, so defining them all individually will be too much work.

Cheers
    Vernon
