FileSystemStorageMonitor

Task Type: Server Monitor
Configurable: Yes
Host Dependent: Yes
Schedule Dependent: No

Description

The FileSystemStorageMonitor monitors free space on local file systems.

Configuration

The <FileSystemStorageMonitorConfig> element must contain one or more <FileSystem> elements configured with the following attributes:

Attribute Required Description
NAME Yes The name of a mount point, drive, or path to monitor.
MBYTES_FREE Depends Specifies the amount of free space, in megabytes, that must be maintained on the monitored volume. An alert is generated when free space falls below the given value. The attribute value must be a positive integer. This attribute is required when PCT_FREE is not used.
PCT_FREE Depends Specifies the amount of free space, as a percentage of the total available, that must be maintained on the monitored volume. An alert is generated when free space falls below the given value. The attribute value must be a positive integer between 1 and 99. This attribute is required when MBYTES_FREE is not used.
ALERT_TYPE No Specifies the type of alert sent when an alert is generated. The default is FILE_SYSTEM_STORAGE.

Example

<FileSystemStorageMonitorConfig>
  <FileSystem NAME="/u01/oradata"
              MBYTES_FREE="1000"/>
  <FileSystem NAME="/app/oracle/admin/ORCL/arch"
              PCT_FREE="20"
              ALERT_TYPE="ARCHIVE_LOG_SPACE"/>
</FileSystemStorageMonitorConfig>

In this example, TCAgent sends a FILE_SYSTEM_STORAGE alert when less than 1000MB of free space is left on '/u01/oradata' and sends an ARCHIVE_LOG_SPACE alert when less than 20 percent of free space is left on '/app/oracle/admin/ORCL/arch'.
