Alerting on disk space

Is there a way to get the full path of the folder/file that's causing disk space on a server to fill up? Currently, I have an alert that provides the server name, volume size, volume space available, & percent volume used.


Example of an email I would receive when the alert triggers:

Volume thwackServer.solarwinds.com-/var, Total size 6.8 G  Free space 338 M Percent used 95 %


"/var" represents the directory of what's filling up, but it doesn't provide the folder or file of what's causing it to fill up.

Please provide any suggestions.

  • I also have this question.  I know we have a tool for CPU/processes.  Hoping we can get one for disks as well. 

    Getting top 10 processes with trigger condition

    SolarWinds.APM.RealTimeProcessPoller.exe -n=${NodeID} -count=10 -sort=CPU -timeout=120 -alert=${N=Alerting;M=AlertDefID} -alertId=${N=Alerting;M=AlertID}
