RE: [cciug] ALERT script if HD is full on Solaris ?

  Hello.

  This is a script that we have as a root cron on most of our
  servers to run on the hour every hour. It's set up to only check
  local file systems (not automounted file systems nor cdroms).
  Therefore on the vob servers it checks the file systems the
  vobs are stored on as well as root and /var (which we've had
  fill up on occasion on our AIX servers). It sends email when
  any file system is 98% or more full. We used to have it set
  up to check for 95%full or more, but we got tired of the
  multiple emails that we got during the night.

  Obviously the perl cron suggestion by Alun is slick (perl
  always is), but (a) I don't know perl [yet] and (b) our
  script checks more than just vob storage file systems (but
  I'm sure Alun could alter his suggestion to fit the bill, too).

  Hope you find this interesting and helpful.

If you want something simple, try a variation of this

In the clearcase administrators crontab:
echo `df -k|grep vobstorage$ |perl -ane '$F[4]=~/(.*)%/; if($1<80){print
"GREEN"}else{print $1<90?"AMBER":"RED"}; '`|mail user@location
<mailto:user@location>

where vobstorage is the path to the vob storage area

        Hi all

        Has anyone of you a script which signals via mail or so ... if the
vobstorage area
        is near to 100 %

        ... or even better ... like in startrek

        green alert - all is good
        yellow alert - over 80 % disk filled
        red alert - over 90 %

        if one has a good idea how to check this automatically please reply,
it's boring to do
        a df -k from time to time ...
          
          
        --
        
        best regards
