I have "tag" files,  ".mounted"       at the top of each native f/s mount,
                                         ".NFSmount"   at the top of each NFS disk.
                                         ".CIFSmount"  at the top of each CIFS disk.
I test on ( I'm Linux so..) I test:
    1) presence/readability
    2)  then, since a f/s fault will flip the f/s to read-only, writeability (echo date into it).

How you do this in windows is not my thing...

Is there any way to set up xymon so that it will detect a missing disk? I had a SAN disk on a Windows box go missing for an hour or so last night and it wasn't detected.

Thanks,
