Solution for monitoring Linux NFS-shares

Hello everyone.

Is there any out-of-box solution for monitoring Linux NFS-shares?

I found only this: NFS File Share Availability

This solution based on Perl script which gets share path and simply compares it with "showmount -e" output. The major inconvenience is that you have to specify exact share name before monitoring begins. And that share name are become hardcoded in monitoring. With that solution you can not just specify node name and point that node has NFS-role deployed. NFS-shares are not automatically founding.

SolarWinds is not good at monitoring things that are not specific. Unless you can write that logic into your script you're not going to be able to do what you want. It might be better to write something to run locally and write the outputs to a local file that you can then monitor/collect with SolarWinds.

Out of the box, NFS shared (assuming that they are mounted) show up as a "NetworkDisk"

You can create an alert on this and filter it to Node Vendor = :Linux and Disk Type = NetworkDisk. Not sure what else you are looking to do.

They would be discovered automatically if you have a scheduled Network Sonar Discovery task defined.
