[mrtg] Re: Threshold Examples?

[Grabowski, David]

Here's a sample. Community name changed to protect the innocent.

FSW2K01 is a W2K server that has a 4996 MByte C: drive. hrStorageUsed
returns the number of 4096-byte blocks that are in use. Dividing that by
256 gives me the number of MBytes.

I normally send alerts at 80% utilization, so the threshold is 3996.

The two batch files simply send e-mail using blat. See below for a
sample.

YLegend[FSW2K01.storageUsedC]: MBytes Used
WithPeak[FSW2K01.storageUsedC]: ymw
XSize[FSW2K01.storageUsedC]: 300
Options[FSW2K01.storageUsedC]: gauge,noo
Target[FSW2K01.storageUsedC]:
.1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.6.2&.1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.6.2:foobar at FSW2K01 / 256
MaxBytes1[FSW2K01.storageUsedC]: 4996
MaxBytes2[FSW2K01.storageUsedC]: 4996
Title[FSW2K01.storageUsedC]: Disk Used
ShortLegend[FSW2K01.storageUsedC]: MBytes
Legend1[FSW2K01.storageUsedC]: C: in next minute
Legend3[FSW2K01.storageUsedC]: Maximal 5 Minute C:
LegendI[FSW2K01.storageUsedC]:  C:
Unscaled[FSW2K01.storageUsedC]: dwmy
ThreshMaxI[FSW2K01.storageUsedC]: 3996
ThreshProgI[FSW2K01.storageUsedC]:
/mrtg/bin/windows-threshold-exceeded.cmd
ThreshProgOKI[FSW2K01.storageUsedC]: /mrtg/bin/windows-threshold-ok.cmd
PageTop[FSW2K01.storageUsedC]: <H1>Disk Utilization 
	</H1>
	<TABLE>
		<TR><TD>System:</TD><TD>FSW2K01</TD></TR>
		<TR><TD>C:</TD><TD>.1.3.6.1.2.1.25.2.3.1.6.2</TD></TR>
	</TABLE>



Here's the complete text of windows-threshold-ok.cmd:

echo Module: %1  Current Value: %3  Limit: %2 | blat - -to me at domain.com
-f mrtg at domain.com -server exmail -s "MRTG Threshold OK: %1: %3 / %2"


Not pretty, but it does the trick. Similar for
windows-threshold-exceeded.cmd.
