Hello,

could this be anything related to the “form” of the reporting of the sizes of the filesystems? …and the result of calculating to the gigabytes / terabytes as in your example?

On “my” systems the sizes are reported in bytes, not in megabytes, gigabytes, terabytes or whatever: [cid:image001.png at 01D46242.1571F360]

Just a thought…

Is the status green or yellow? If green, check your analysis.cfg will match this host and limits configured appropriately. If yellow, check the info page for this host to see what alerting you have, and configure alerting in alerts.cfg if needed. If configured OK, check the notifications report.

Kind regards,

Ah yes,

i also recently stumbled over this. Took me some time to find out what is the root cause (as always this mailing list helped). But i wonder why the disk alerting does not work anymore if i change df -Pl to df -hPl, if the disk usage percentage is not affected (by syntax or output field). (Btw: the inode alerting is not affected by the "h" switch).

I really would like to get this fixed, as for our normally huge disks it is hard to check how much space is available by a normal df...

sure,

but for a fast check how many GB are available if the disk becomes yellow it is much more useful to have human readeable output. I cannot see why this

df -hlP /home Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/xvda2 25G 7.0G 17G 31% /

behaves differently then this

df -lP /home Filesystem 1024-blocks Used Available Capacity Mounted on /dev/xvda2 25412940 7260876 16854504 31% /

as field NF-1 is the same. And the usage graphs are also not affected.

You can actually check for free space on volume instead of percentage.  I do this for really large volumes since multi-terabyte disks still have plenty of space when at 95% :-).  I expect that is why the -h arg won't work since the parser in Xymon expects a certain format.  For example:

DISK /archive/courses 52428800U 10485760U

(IIRC, those are in KB...check the man page) to turn yellow when 50 GB remains and red when 10 GB left on device.

Yes,

this may break the evaluation of remaining disk space, but we only use the percentage value in analysis.cfg. And there is a dot in percent usage in both output versions, means in general this can handle the dot. And, as i said, the graph works fine even if i use the human readable output. So no difference in syntax or field, but nevertheless only one version works.

I wonder if the dot in the string is causing an issue?

     /dev/xvda2  25G  7.0G  17G  31%  /

If I found the right bit in the code, it uses "atol()" to convert ascii string to long int.  I think maybe the conversion stops when it hits the non-numeric dot and it never sees the multiplier?
