Icinga director - Monitor several Linux partitions with their own disk threshold

[kosli]

I have a server monitored by check_disk which has multiple disks. By default all disks are listed in results with the same thresholds. As some of the disks are large, e.g. 10 TB, so a threshold with 10% is not relevant for that disk and I would like to adjust it per-disk.
I haven’t found a way how to configure different thresholds per disk in Icinga director (despite adding separate services for separate disks).

e.g. I looked at the following threads, but haven’t found anything regards director:

Monitoring disk space on server with multiple drives

Hello. I am new to Icinga. can you please help me get this point: How does Icinga monitor disk space on Server with multiple drives. do I have to write a script for each drive, an will get an alarm for each one, that would not be practical for us cause we dont want to get notified because of just one drive while the other are not full. or it s possible to set a trigger for the total amount of disk space. Thanks

Help please: adapting disk thresholds per host

Hi, for that check i think you could add a second assign where to the service object - something like // assign check where host.vars.disk_custom_partitions is defined assign where host.vars.disk_custom_partitions Greetz

overriding thresholds of individual disks

you got two options …

1. have one check per disk. then you can even template the limits (like 10% for system disk, 10GB for data disk etc.)
2. add a hole heap of custom options to the check to set different warning/critical limits
   option 2) is reasonable if you need that onle on very vew hosts, i’d go with option 1. then you can easily override limits for each check as needed

Thanks @fireba11 . In the meantime I had implemented already option 1 as I thought this is most likely the best way to go
