Not very familiar with PERL, and we are now using the netsaint_statd for Nagios monitoring, as it solved our problem with some machines not wanting to run the NRPE daemon... However, we are having a little issue with HP-UX and disk space monitoring... Here is a snippet of our bdf -l output: Filesystem kbytes used avail %used Mounted on /dev/vg00/lvol3 204800 54976 140468 28% / /dev/vg00/lvol1 83733 30841 44518 41% /stand /dev/vg00/lvol8 1228800 1002685 212144 83% /var /dev/vg00/lvol7 1228800 561770 625379 47% /usr /dev/vgdata02/lvol07 2048000 1144064 847501 57% /u15 /dev/vgdata02/lvol06 4096000 3074152 957988 76% /u14 /dev/vgdata02/lvol05 10240000 8400295 1724729 83% /u13 As you can see, all is well until we reach the /dev/vgdata02/lvol07 filesystem... Then, due to the length of the Filesystem name, bdf supplies the disk space info on the next line down... However, the netsaint_statd see's nothing past the Filesystem and decides there is no data, and supplies the first filesystem on the machine as output... Any assistanmce appreciated! Here is the PERL code used to retrieve the data: sub disk { my $arg = shift; my ($disk, $avail, $capper, $mountpt); open(DFOUTPUT,"$commandlist{$os}{dfcommand} |") || die; $_ = <DFOUTPUT>; DFCHECK: while($_ = <DFOUTPUT>) { if (/^([\w\/\:\.\-\=]*)\s*\d*\s*\d*\s*(\d*)\s*(\d*)\%\s*([\w\/\-]*)/) { $disk = $1; $avail = $2; $capper = $3; $mountpt = $4; last DFCHECK if ($disk =~ /$arg/); } } if ($disk && $mountpt) { $capper = 100 - $capper; print Client "$disk $avail $capper $mountpt "; } else { print Client "not found"; } ($disk,$avail,$capper,$mountpt) = undef; close(DFOUTPUT); } </BODY> </HTML>
