Enable Linux/Unix NFS mount capacity monitoring

The up.time Linux and UNIX agents do not list external volumes by default in their file system capacity listing. This configuration ensures that shared external volumes are not double counted in capacity planning reports. We generally recommend monitoring external volume capacity from the host that is hosting the volumes.

However, to change this default behavior on a specific target agent, look within the /opt/uptime-agent/bin/perfparse.sh or /opt/uptime-agent/bin/df-k.sh file and change the following line:

Original line: $DFBIN -lk
Updated line: $DFBIN -k

For the Solaris agent you may also need to remove the following from the df-k command in the /opt/uptime-agent/bin/perfparse.sh:

"{ if ( index( $1, ":" ) <= 0 )" and 1 of the 3 "}" at the end otherwise this will filter out any of the mounts that have a ":" in the name.

Original line: $DFBIN -lk | fgrep -v "dmpfs" | fgrep -v "/proc" | fgrep -v "/dev/fd" | fgrep

-v "/dev/null" | grep -v "^swap" | fgrep -v "/cdrom" | fgrep -v "/net" | fgrep -

v "/etc/mnttab" | fgrep -v "/var/run" | $AWKBIN '{ if ( index( $1, ":" ) <= 0 )

{ if ($2=="") { fs=$1; getline; print fs " " $0 } else { print $0 } } }' | tail

Updated line: $DFBIN -lk | fgrep -v "dmpfs" | fgrep -v "/proc" | fgrep -v "/dev/fd" | fgrep

-v "/dev/null" | grep -v "^swap" | fgrep -v "/cdrom" | fgrep -v "/net" | fgrep -

v "/etc/mnttab" | fgrep -v "/var/run" | $AWKBIN '{ if ($2=="") { fs=$1; getline; print fs " " $0 } else { print $0 } }' | tail

To verify that this change now shows your new drives, use the Poll Agent tool under the Info & Rescan tab for your target agent and validate that the df-k section includes all volumes you are interested in monitoring.
