Linux Disk Space monitoring

Question

I am new to Orion and need to monitor disk space utilization on some Linux servers. I have a very rudimentary snmpd.conf file working which shows me the server status and Physical memory, cache, etc. My next step is to monitor the disk space. How do I go about that?

I am using the command "disk /sample 20%" that I added to the conf file but it doesn't seem to work. What am I missing? Attached is a screen shot of "df -k".

My snmpd.conf file has following lines:

rocommunity xxxx xxxxx

syslocation xxxxx

syscontact xxxxxx

disk /dev 20%

Yes, I did restart snmpd several times. Thanks for your help in advance.

Thanks for your response. I think I am just going to monitor the root volume for now.

Thanks again.

The problem with '/dev' might be that it is not ordinary filesystem.

You can try adding 'includeAllDisks 20%', and see what disks it offers for monitoring.
