Re: [Bigsister-general] Monitoring windows servers - help with uxmon-net

[Ryan Stille <suppressed>]

I've wasted hours of my time trying to get the syntax right in uxmon-net 
to monitor my windows drive.  No one has done this and could offer any 
insight?  I've even been pouring through the perl source code trying to 
figure it out.  I would have given up and moved on but this is the third 
monitoring package I've tried - so far they've all been difficult to get 
setup and running.

I've gotten a little further than the "no file systems monitored" 
message I had before. With this config line:
localhost    fs="Local Disk"(5%-15%),D:(2%-4%) frequency=1 diskfree

I get:
disk UNKNOWN: Local Disk (no data available)
disk UNKNOWN: D: (no data available)
disk UNKNOWN: 0 (no data available)

...on the monitoring page.  I think its trying to match some string I 
don't have right.  Thats why I was trying the volume name "Local Disk", 
as well as just a drive letter. I think I've had more luck using 
diskfree than disk.

diskperf is on, and I've rebooted the server.

I started going down the route of using SNMP, as some have suggested.  I 
ran snmpwalk against the server, and as I thought, there's no agent 
running there.  I don't want to have to find, download, install, secure 
and configure an snmp agent on all our servers.  So that option is out.

Thanks for any help.
