Monitor File Systems

This example monitors file systems on Windows and consists of three groups of entries for the sysedge.cf file:

Usage of object state model with different severities dependent from different thresholds.
Usage of flag 0x800 in combination with the same class, instance, attribute, and severity. Flag 0x800 specifies the aggregate state of all monitors with same severity and applies the AND relation.
Usage of aggregate_level control.

Note: The prefix //./ which is added to the object instance per default (denoting localhost) is omitted in the example.

# Derives a state for file system C: (System).
# Creates an aggregate ‘FSys’ ‘System’ ‘PercentUsed’, which can be in state ok, minor, major, or fatal.

monitor devTableEntry 'C:' devCapacity 51 0x0 120 absolute > 90 'Description' '' 'FSys' 'System' 'PercentUsed' minor
monitor devTableEntry 'C:' devCapacity 52 0x0 120 absolute > 95 'Description' '' 'FSys' 'System' 'PercentUsed' major
monitor devTableEntry 'C:' devCapacity 53 0x0 120 absolute > 99 'Description' '' 'FSys' 'System' 'PercentUsed' fatal

# Derives warning state if three conditions are met simultaneously, that is, only if all three Backup file systems E:, F:, and G: are above 95%.
# Creates an aggregate ‘FSys’ ‘Backup’ ‘PercentUsed’, which can be in state ok or warning.

monitor devTableEntry 'E:' devCapacity 54 0x800 120 absolute > 95 'Description' '' 'FSys' 'Backup' 'PercentUsed' warning
monitor devTableEntry 'F:' devCapacity 55 0x800 120 absolute > 95 'Description' '' 'FSys' 'Backup' 'PercentUsed' warning
monitor devTableEntry 'G:' devCapacity 56 0x800 120 absolute > 95 'Description' '' 'FSys' 'Backup' 'PercentUsed' warning

# Derives worst state of all file systems.
# Creates a super aggregate ‘FSys’ ‘*’ ‘PercentUsed’, which can be in state ok, warning, minor, major, or fatal.
