Change volume status with an alert

Hello,

I would like to change volume (disk) status when the free space available of a volume is less than 5%. Is there any way to do this ?

When I configure an alert for this purpose, I cannot used "set custom status" in "trigger actions" tab as it seems to be dedicated to node objects. Is that correct ?

Thank you for your help.

  • Rather annoyingly SolarWinds ommitted the inclusion of a specific threshold value for Volumes, which obviously should be based on current utilisation. Instead they created a threshold value based on Future capacity.

    However, you may be able to use this threshold setting. zackm​ posted an excellent article on creating alerts of the back of these to work in the same way as a current value alert, which may be of help
