Volumes/RAM/CPU monitor and node status

ilkulik

Hello all,

Does any one know what is the problem? Let's say I have a server monitored by SolarWinds APM, for example file server. And I want to be aware that I reached space issue for some volumes of the server.

I'm looking a node status and node has green light - means node ok.

Ok, let's scroll down a little bit to review node's volumes

all 9 volumes looks good, all is green. From that step I should close the page and be sure that i have enough free space on each volume, isn't it?

But when I move cursor on the specific volume  I can see that for example volume H has 89% used space and looks like in the warning state

Can some one explain to me the following:

     1. Why all the volumes are green even it has used space over warning threshold ?

     2. Why node state is normal once the node's component reached warning threshold ?

Campy

I had this same issue and my solution was to create an alert for volumes, fixed and network disks, to alert on less than 15% available disk space, be sure to add the NetPerfMon Event Log in the trigger actions so it shows in the active alerts screen. You could also set this up where the if the warning/critical threshold were breached the alert would trigger.
