I think it would be nice to have the green/yellow/red based on the GB/MB/KB size since some of our disks are presented from a SAN and can be close to 180GB, even 1% of that is HUGE...

I was thinking about this just the other day, so thanks to Anatoli for bringing it up :)

missing the right mailq script. If i use mailq.sh script from deadcat the values for mail queue size and length are reported properly, but no RRD file is created and thus no graph appears. Log files remains clean.

Within do_mailq.c there is a notice about "Erik's enhanced mailq script" Unfortunately i cant find this script. Maybe anybody is using this one and could provide it?

Heh :-) the "Erik" mentioned here is a colleague of mine who handles a bunch of Sendmail servers. That's a custom script for a virus-scanning mail-gateway we have, where we want to check on both incoming and outgoing mails - the default mailq scripts I've seen only looks at the outbound queue size. So Erik's enhanced mailq script is pretty specific to our setup, i think.

The normal mailq script I used for this was the one that comes with larrd 0.43c (the "bf/nmailq-bf.sh" script in LARRD).

Would you mind to think about the option to enhance disk checks for handling of absolute disk usage (KB/MB/GB) and not only the percent values?

It's already there - just ask for the "disk1" graph instead of "disk".

Or were you thinking of having the status (red/yellow/green) depend on the # of GB's used ?
