Storage Monitoring

Good afternoon

We are looking at event tuning within SL1 and are wanting to have different thresholds based on the drive, so for example with our file servers we are looking to tune the events so that if the c: drive is over 90% full it logs a minor and if it is over 95% it logs a major for the device. But then with the shared drives we would want them to alert at as 96% and 98%, as they are larger drives.

Does anyone know if this is possible and how it would be set up, as from what we can see you can only have a set threshold for every disk

Thank You

    This is already available, under the thresholds tab for the Device. 

    Windows and Linux.

      Good afternoon James, do you know if it is possible to do this across a group of servers, rather than one at a time i.e a group of file servers.

      This would make it easier to manage as we could then say any device that is tagged as a file server, set the c:\ to 90% and 95% but any other drive set to say 97% and 98%

      I hope this makes sense

        You could try creating Device Groups for every type of server, then use a template to modify the threshold. 

        Add the DA which you use to monitor CPU, and then see if you can adjust the threshold.

         

        Alternatively you would need to look into adding a row into this table (master_dev.device_thresholds) for every device. But its a bit more complicated.
