#214 Strage behavior for large nfs mount monitored via SNMP

[sas]

I've got a few host I monitor disk space on via SNMP
and they all mount a large partition via nfs.

The Big Sister page when you drill down in disk shows this

green /logs -787075088 (106.7%)

If I do a df on the local box

# df /logs
Filesystem 512-blocks Used Avail
Capacity Mounted on
10.2.1.74:/archive/rtrec 2820138912 99321800 2577562304
3% /logs

I guess it could be a problem with the SNMP not
handling a number that large, but either way, shouldn't
106.7% be red and not green?

Hmh, I hate signed/unsigned number problems :-))

Red or not red is not necessarily nailed on the percentage
value.

I'll move this over to the bugs section.

Oh, and you expect an answer for your problem: Is there any
chance you could monitor the partition in question locally
via df rather than remotely via SNMP? I assume, the NFS
volume is on some host you do not want (or cannot) run uxmon
on, but anyway, you can monitor the file system via NFS by
monitoring it on a system with an installed uxmon that
mounts it via NFS.
