Question by Bc V. · Feb 26, 2014 at 07:55 AM ·

Disk space monitoring (_Total)

Hello,

Can anybody suggest regarding disk space monitoring?.. I would like to monitor free disk space so that it will send me an incident when the specified threshold is reached. I am getting error Free diskspace error.jpg as specified in the attachment. I am using fully qualified address to the host (Hosted server.jpg). I have also added required performance counters for server so that I could read the information. I'm not getting the proper status in the monitor. I am using only free disk space measure.jpg. Please see free disk space performance counter.jpg which I have created to read free space. I did tried to change the values according to the threshold so that I can reflect the right status, I have also tried to calculate free disk space to the specific disk like D:\, But in either the cases i am getting error which i mentioned.

Kindly suggest,

Thanks in advance

Vasanth

Hi

So - you are using a Windows Performance Monitor. Monitors are executed on a Collector "inheriting" the same windows user privilidges that the Collector Service uses. By default the dynaTrace Collector runs under the LocalService account which in your case may not have be able to query these remote performance counters. Try a different user for the Collector and try again. Also - there is more detailed information in the doc: How To Retrieve Performance Metrics with Windows Performance Monitor
