Hi,

Im my company there is no script been automated for the alerts to be flooded to my mail the filesystem gets over the threshold value. Please provide me a script which works in the sense as " when the filesystems gets over the threshold value 85% , i need to receive a mail specifing the server name and the particular filesystem % has over loaded" with the output of bdf or df command "

Hello harish,
its here below,
you need to change mail_list,
you can execute this through crontab
once file system will reach 85% will send you email alert

you can also configure pager if you want to get alert on pager for this, thanks,


#!/bin/ksh

# Shell script to check the space left on each file system

mail_list=" abcd_as@doamin.com"



file1="/tmp/blah$$"


> $file1

/usr/bin/bdf -l | awk -v file=$file1 '
{
if ( NR == 1 )
next

if ( $5 > "85" || $4 < 6000 )
{
print $6 " " $5 " " $4 " " > file
}
}'

if [ -s $file1 ]
then
hostname >> $file1
mailx -s `hostname`" diskspace full alert notification" $mail_list < $file1
fi
/bin/rm -f $file1

Hi,

Attached is a script that will send you an email if a filesystem has reached a certain percentage of usage. It is best to send the email to an SMS gateway and get the notifications via SMS. Ask your mobile provider for such an email account.

(Before you run this take a look, there are some things you should modify. Oh, and it applies to all scripts especially if you run it as root!)

Here is the conf file for the abovementioned script, here you can set the filesystems and the tresholds for it.

Modify it too...
