Actually, I think you would just use multiple IGNORE lines.

  Can you list multiple file systems on the IGNORE line?

Thanks,
Matt

In reply to some Polka music by Jeremy Laidman:
In analysis.cfg, you can use the IGNORE tag on a filesystem to have it
excluded.

This thread discusses, and shows examples of, a couple of options (one
being IGNORE) to handle filesystems that don't need to be monitored.

Not sure we need to have a dozen copies of the same information?
Anyone have a clever way to just monitor the main parition and
not the subvolumes?
On this machine, the /u01 volume is btrfs.  There are two subvolumes,
but they do not show up in the report for the "disk" status.

The xymon client is 4.3.12 and the xymon server is 4.3.23.

On the client in the xymonclient.xfg file, this is defined:

DFCMD="/bin/df -Pk"

The linux distro on the client is CentOS 7.

Thanks,
Shawn
