evesy / sensu-plugins-disk-checks

This plugin provides native disk instrumentation for monitoring and metrics collection, including: health, usage, and various metrics.

Sensu-Plugins-disk-checks

Functionality

check-disk-usage

Check disk capacity and inodes based upon the gem sys-filesystem.

Can adjust thresholds for larger filesystems by providing a 'magic factor' (-m). The default, 1.0, will not adapt threshold percentages for volumes.

The -l option can be used in combination with the 'magic factor' to specify the minimum size volume to adjust the thresholds for.

Refer to check_mk's documentation on adaptive thresholds.

You can also visualize the adjustment using WolframAlpha with the following:

y = 100 - (100-P)*(N^(1-m))/(x^(1-m)), y = P for x in 0 to 1024

Where P = base percentage, N = normalize factor, and m = magic factor

check-fstab-mounts

Check the mount points in /etc/fstab to ensure they are all accounted for.

metrics-disk-capacity

Acquire disk capacity metrics from df and convert them to a form usable by graphite

metrics-disk

Read /proc/iostats for disk metrics and put them in a form usable by Graphite. See iostats.txt for more details.

metrics-disk-usage

Based on disk-capacity-metrics.rb by bhenerey and nstielau. The difference here being how the key is defined in graphite and the size we emit to graphite(now using megabytes), inode info has also been dropped.

check-smart-status

Check the SMART status of hardrives and alert based upon a given set of thresholds

check-smart

Check the health of a disk using smartctl

Certification Verification

If you are verifying certificates in the gem install you will need the certificate for the sys-filesystem gem loaded in the gem certificate store. That cert can be found here.
