Disk Free Space Monitoring
The Microsoft Windows Servers Base Operating System Management Pack monitors
the disk space of all disk drives within managed computers. Thresholds can be
defined for both system drives and non-system drives. The values that are set
for non-system drives and system drives are used to determine the green,
yellow, and red states for state monitoring of disk free space.
Configuration
Ensure that the following event rule is enabled for each version of Windows:
\State Monitoring and Service Discovery\Event Rules\Run Storage State
Monitoring. This event rule is enabled by default.
Customization
You can modify the threshold values that the event rule uses to trigger
warning and error events. The following table lists the default threshold
values for both warning and error events. For non-system and system drives,
warning and error events are generated when both threshold values are met.
Table 7 Default Disk Space Threshold Values
Drive Warning Threshold Error Threshold
All volumes
N/A
100 MB
Non-system drives
500 MB and 10% or less free space
250 MB and 5% or less free space
System drives
500 MB and 10% or less free space
250 MB and 5% or less free space
To customize disk space monitoring thresholds
1.
In the MOM Administrator console, navigate to the Run Storage State
Monitoring event rule.
2.
Right-click the rule, click Properties, and then click the Response tab.
3.
In the Script parameters box, select the Microsoft Windows Storage State
Monitoring script, and then click Edit.
4.
To modify a script parameter, select the parameter and click Edit Script
Parameters.
5.
After modifying script responses, click OK, click OK again, and then click
Apply.
6.
After modifying the script responses, commit the configuration changes to
apply the changes to agent computers
