Hello,
I have tried different recommendations from the mailing list and I played around with different ways of ignoring some mount types.
There is two problems I always had:
- NFS/CIFS/SMB mounts hang/delay the "df" command if remote host does not respond
- Special devices should be ignored (CD/DVD/etc)
Now, I'm using the following method and as of now, it look like it work very well for me (mostly AIX or Linux environments)
*** If somebody has other ideas or think this could be done in a simpler ways, I would be glad to hear your comments. ***
My actual "method" if to catch only some vfs types from the "mount" command and pass the filesystem list to "df"
In the file /home/hobbit/client/bin/hobbitclient-aix.sh

# Change to remove NFS and CIFS filesystems
#df -Ik | sed -e '/^[^ ][^ ]*$/{
df -Ik `mount | awk '$3~/jfs/ {printf $2 " "}'` | sed -e '/^[^ ][^ ]*$/{

[hobbit] Ignore NFS
I searched the archive and found a few posts about monitoring nfs mounts.
But how can I ignore nfs mounts from showing up?
Weekly ignite backups mount a filesystem and unmount it. I would like to ignore this filesystem on the clients but have it monitored on the server. How can I go about this?
And also how can I delete the extra chart that it created today.
For now I just set the default higher so it would not page out.
Thanks
Richard
