Monitoring Mounted Windows Volumes (Used for Exchange IS)
Hello,
I did a few searches before posting the following Disk monitoring question.
I am trialing OpsManager to monitor our Exchange 2003 environment.
We have most of it configured, but I'm having trouble setting up monitoring for our Mounted volumes. To explain:
We are monitoring 2 Exchange 2003 Instances within one 3node Win2003 cluster. Each instance has a Drive letter on a volume, and 3 Mounted volumes off the root. For example we have J:\SG1, J:\SG2 and J:\SG3. All the SG's are Fiber Channel SAN drives.
Anyone who has mounted volumes in this manner can see that when you look at the free space on J:, or even J:\SG1 etc in Windows Explorer, it doesn't reflect the free space on the mounted volumes. I currently use Computer Manager > Disk Management to view % free space and look at Disk9(SG1),10(SG2) and 11(SG3)
I want to set up something to monitor the free space on the Mounted volumes and alert when it reaches less then 10% free space. Can someone help instruct me to do this?
Thank you very much in advance.
