[solved] Windows Server 2008 Disk usage

Post by tommyd »

Hi!

I have problem with monitoring disc usage on Windows 2008 servers.
Cacti version: 0.8.7e
I'm using snmp v2
Host template: Windows 2000/XP host
Data query: SNMP - Get Mounted Partitions
Result is always 0.

There are no erros when running ss_host_disk.php in script server but result is also 0


Data Query Debug Information:

Increase the snmp timeout for those devices a lot... the microsoft agent is slow for disk queries.

How hi did you have to make the timeout?
Windows 2003, IIS 6, Cacti 0.8.7e, MySQL5.1, PHP 5.2.11

I've tried, but it didn't work for me (with windows 2k8). Maybe I try again if I have some time.

Maybe someone is having trouble along these lines also with drives in the TB's and PB's?

Re: [solved] Windows Server 2008 Disk usage

Post by ska »

Regarding the 5000msec timeout issues. I've regularly seen latency > 5secs when querying hrStorage on Windows 2008R2 (with as few as 2 partitions). After simply disabling the floppy disk within device manager (who needs this anyway?), the uncached response time dropped to 60-80msecs. Thus no need to increase the timeout. Thanks to BSOD2600 for the heads up.

Add.:Keep in mind that this will alter the SNMP indexing.
