how to configure "disk" alerts to only a specific partition?
list Tom Sztur
So we have a few partitions on one of our systems. One particular partition goes up to 99-100% at times which is normal. We do not want to get alerts for this partition. We are only concerned about the others. How can I set xymon/hobbit to ignore certain partitions from being checked and/or alerted on? TIA. tom.

Here is an example. Make sure that your specific entries are listed prior to the final stanza of Default.
HOST=somehost
DISK %^/(ph[12]ti|nefs0[2-9]|e2fs1[12]) IGNORE
DISK * 95 98

Tim

So we have a few partitions on one of our systems.
One particular partition goes up to 99-100% at times which is normal. We do not want to get alerts for this partition.
We are only concerned about the others.
How can I set xymon/hobbit to ignore certain partitions from being checked and/or alerted on?
TIA.

This one is also the $SERVER_HOME/etc/hobbit-clients.cfg It's documented inside that file. Search for "IGNORE" in all caps. --jms

Another way is this
HOST=myhost
DISK /my/really/full/volume 101 101
DISK * 85 90
This makes it only alert on 101% for that volume, which it will never reach.
This has the advantage that tt will still graph and trend the volume, but
you can expect no alerts.
Whereas IGNORE will do just that. It's as if the volume doesn't exist. No
graphs, not trends, no visibility.
