Hey,
Started monitoring our first SLES 12 box this week and noticed
that it is keeping track of every subvol of the boot partition.
Not sure we need to have a dozen copies of the same information?
Anyone have a clever way to just monitor the main parition and
not the subvolumes?
Thanks, Matt

Hmm, not familiar with btrfs. Can you show the [df] section of the client data? Also the contents of /proc/mounts?

On this machine, the /u01 volume is btrfs. There are two subvolumes, but they do not show up in the report for the "disk" status.

The xymon client is 4.3.12 and the xymon server is 4.3.23.
On the client in the xymonclient.xfg file, this is defined:
DFCMD="/bin/df -Pk"
The linux distro on the client is CentOS 7.
Thanks, Shawn
In analysis.cfg, you can use the IGNORE tag on a filesystem to have it excluded.
This thread discusses, and shows examples of, a couple of options (one being IGNORE) to handle filesystems that don't need to be monitored.

Can you list multiple file systems on the IGNORE line?
Thanks, Matt

Actually, I think you would just use multiple IGNORE lines.
