Re: [hobbit] RE: Multiple disk definitions



Hi Vernon,

This is not a very elegant solution but may work for you

Are you able to create 2 extra pages for these hosts? 1 for large disk and 1 for small disks. You can then base the alerts for these hosts based on these 2 pages. This has the drawback of the same host being defined multiple times in bb-hosts so make sure on the new pages you use noconn and do not define any more checks. This will also increase the number of monitored servers that bbnet reports. So e.g.

page REAL Monitored servers

1.2.3.4 serverA # ssh http://serverA.domain.com
3.4.5.6 serverB # ssh http://serverB.domain.com

page HUGE Large disk servers

0.0.0.0 serverA # noconn

page SMALL Small disk servers

0.0.0.0 serverB # noconn

Now you can define in hobbit-clients.cfg

PAGE=HUGE

DISK /data1 10485760U 5242880U

PAGE=SMALL


DISK /data1 85 90

Cheers

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

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
