df_mon.cfg configuration

[Jino.P.V]

Hi All,
I have a network which is monitored by OV agents. The filesystem thresholds are monitored and it is configured in /var/opt/OV/conf/OpC/df_mon.cfg. If I need to exclude a path I need to use following format:

/data/abc/def/ghi/jkl/mno/data1 exclude

Now I have so many filesystem mounted in a long path. Eg:
/data/abc/def/ghi/jkl/mno/data1
/data/abc/def/ghi/jkl/mno/data2
.
.
.
.
/data/abc/def/ghi/jkl/mno/data30

Now I want to exclude monitoring of filesystems that are mounted /data/abc/def/ghi/jkl/mno path. I want to do it in single line instead of mentioning all filesystems(So many other filesystems will be mounted automatically like data31, data32... etc). Could you please give me a solution?

Hi,

I do faintly remember some cofiguration monitoring in the past. Though you need to analyze the monitoring script that uses the cfg file /var/opt/OV/conf/OpC/df_mon.cfg. If you can hunt that down we will be able to help you more. The reason being to find how the monitoring script uses this cfg file,to know whether we can use wild caracters or not.

Anyway ,Have you tried using ...

/data/abc/def/ghi/jkl/mno/data* exclude

Note: this may not work depending upon the monitoring script.My best would be to analize the monitoring script itself.

P.S: if you want to know which is the monitoring script.. in my environment I would have checked it by running "opcdcode" command on "monitor" template.

Hi Senthil,

I have tried with wild charecter. It is not working. What I want to know is that if OVPA configuration files do consider wild charecters in configuration files?

Hi,

From your answer it doesnot seems so. Were you atleast successful in tracking the monitoring script I was talking about.
