Hi
Oops - sorry about that, you're right.
I have added '/FIXED' to the mountpoint information in the latest commit and
it seems to work for me now.
Thanks
Zak

Hmm, RRD collection for "disk" seems to be broken for me with Xymon PS
Client v1.98.
Based on my interpretation of the code in xymon/rrd/do_disk.c, see below, I
changed the following in xymonclient.ps1
Line 1347 from:
$mountpoint, `
to
"/FIXED/$mountpoint", `
Now both the "C" and "MountPointTest" as per disk chuck below are collected
OK:
v1.93:
[disk]
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted
Label Summary(Total\Avail GB)
C 104753148 41374564 63378584 39% C:\
SYSTEM 99.90\60.44
MountPointTest 104753148 41374564 63378584 39%
C:\MountPointTest\ SYSTEM 99.90\60.44
Mod v1.98
[disk]
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted
Label Summary(Total\Avail GB)
C 104753148 41304580 63448568 39% /FIXED/C:\
SYSTEM 99.90\60.51
MountPointTest 104753148 41304580 63448568 39%
/FIXED/C:\MountPointTest\ SYSTEM 99.90\60.51
It would probably be best to do this quick hack or similar to restore RRD
collection/graphs until if/when the "do_disk.c" can be taught about the
Xymon PS Client disk output?

And one final one for the list.
If this is the final output of "disk" for the new powershell client, then it
would be nice if the Xymon server module
xymond/rrd/do_disk.c
could be trained to graph the mountpoints in addition to the driveletter. I
am running server v4.3.18 and the mountpoint is not being RRD collected or
graphed.
I should point out that the BBWIN collected mountpoints were also not being
graphed either, so it that sense it is the same situation.
I see we have a couple of windows client types handled in that module, DT_NT
and DT_BBWIN.
Both of these clients are getting on a bit and it appears that the
powershell client might be the way to go for the future with Windows
platforms, so maybe DT_PS is needed?
For reference, an example chunk from client message from my test system is:
[disk]
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted
Label Summary(Total\Avail GB)
C 104753148 41374564 63378584 39% C:\
SYSTEM 99.90\60.44
MountPointTest 104753148 41374564 63378584 39%
C:\MountPointTest\ SYSTEM 99.90\60.44
The module looks to be treating this as BB_NT output as we begin with
"Filesystem" like the BB_NT client.
I think this is the codethat might be causing an issue:
if ( (dsystype == DT_NT) && (*(columns[5])) && (strchr(columns[0], '/')) )
where BBNT client would have something like "/FIXED/C" being evaluated?
I attach a previous email to the list where the same issue was seen. In that
case modifying the poweshell client to display something like
"/FIXED/F:\ORAARCHIVE" for a mountpoint caused the mountpoints to be
collected/graphed.
If someone could look into this for a future update it would be appreciated,
as my windows guys would like to see graphs for their mountpoints.

Subject: [Xymon] Windows Xymon PS Client 1.98
Hi
I've just committed version 1.98 to the project repository -
http://sourceforge.net/p/xymon/code/HEAD/tree/sandbox/WinPSClient/.
This update has a number of fixes and additions thanks to the suggestions
and reaction to the previous patches, thanks to Gavin, Brandon and others
for your feedback.
List of changes:
* Mount points are now shown in the disk section, similar to BBWin.
The drive label has been added and the column alignment adjusted to suit
drives up to 999TB.
* The eventlogswanted directive now supports wildcards in the list
of event logs field. So you can now return all event logs like this:
eventlogswanted:*:250000
* The eventlogswanted directive also supports an optional fourth
field to specify which levels of event should be returned - critical, error,
warning, information, verbose. By default, all are returned. Values in the
field should be comma-delimited, e.g.:
eventlogswanted:*:250000:error,warning,critical
* The dirsize directive now works for files as well as directories.
Thanks to everyone, I really appreciate your feedback.
Regards
Zak
