how to configure "disk" alerts to only a specific partition?
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.

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

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

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.
