[mrtg] Disk monitoring problem

[Syrovátka, Zdeněk, VF-CZ]

Thank you, Steve.
This is the first disk item from the configuration file. Should it start with dskPercent.0 or did you mean something else? We have the same configuration on other servers with no problems. Also Google says it should start from 1.

## servername #  # / ######################
Target[servername.]: dskPercent.1&dskPercent.1:communityname at servername

Whatconfiguration do you have in your MRTG Target[] lines?  It is hard to spot the error without this information.
Remember that the index should start at 0, not at 1.  This may be where you're going wrong?

--- original message
I have interesting problem with disk monitoring on Solaris 10. In /etc/sma/snmp/snmpd.conf I have configured 5 disks but MRTG sees only 4 of them. I receive two error messages:
...
After adding the first disk twice, all is OK:
disk / 5%
disk / 5%
disk /var 5%
disk /crashfs 5%
disk /export/home 5%
disk /disk5name 5%

It seems that MRTG does not recognize the first disk in snmpd.conf. Does anybody experienced the same problem? I think the first error message applies to system uptime, but it also disappears after adding the first disk twice.
