[Xymon] xymon not warning

Fri Oct 12 16:49:23 CEST 2018

You can actually check for free space on volume instead of percentage.  I
do this for really large volumes since multi-terabyte disks still have
plenty of space when at 95% :-).  I expect that is why the -h arg won't
work since the parser in Xymon expects a certain format.  For example:

DISK /archive/courses 52428800U 10485760U

(IIRC, those are in KB...check the man page) to turn yellow when 50 GB
remains and red when 10 GB left on device.
