eG Monitoring
 

Measures reported by DiskSpaceTest

This test monitors the space usage every physical and logical partition on a host.

Outputs of the test : One set of results for each physical/logical disk partition and/or NFS drive on the host monitored

The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
Total_capacity Indicates the total capacity of a disk partition. MB For a managed Hyper-V or Hyper-V VDI component, the Disk Space test reports metrics for an additional Total descriptor. For this descriptor, this measure will reveal the total disk capacity of the Hyper-V or Hyper-V VDI host across all its disk partitions.
Used_space Indicates the amount of space used in a disk partition. MB For a managed Hyper-V or Hyper-V VDI component, the Disk Space test reports metrics for an additional Total descriptor. For this descriptor, this measure will reveal the total space used on the Hyper-V or Hyper-V VDI host across all its disk partitions.
Free_space Indicates the current free space available for each disk partition of a system. MB For a managed Hyper-V or Hyper-V VDI component, the Disk Space test reports metrics for an additional Total descriptor. For this descriptor, this measure will reveal the total free space on the Hyper-V or Hyper-V VDI host across all its disk partitions.
Percent_usage Indicates the percentage of space usage on each disk partition of a system. Percent A value close to 100% can indicate a potential problem situation where applications executing on the system may not be able to write data to the disk partition(s) with very high usage.

For a managed Hyper-V or Hyper-V VDI component, the Disk Space test reports metrics for an additional Total descriptor. For this descriptor, this measure will reveal the percent usage of the total disk capacity of the Hyper-V or Hyper-V VDI host across all its disk partitions.

Drive_avail Indicates whether the drive of each disk partition is available or not. Percent A value of 100% indicates that the drive is available and a value 0 indicates that the drive is not available.

For a managed Hyper-V or Hyper-V VDI component, the Disk Space test reports metrics for an additional Total descriptor. For this descriptor, this measure is not applicable.

Automation_Status Indicates the current status of cleanup automation.

This measure will appear only if the Automation parameter is set to Yes.
  The values reported by this measure and its numeric equivalents are mentioned in the table below:

Measure Value Numeric Value
Not required 1
Started 2
Running 3
Completed 4
Not enabled 5
Failed 6
Note:

By default, this measure reports the Measure Values listed in the table above to indicate the current status of cleanup automation. The graph of this measure however, represents the status of a port using the numeric equivalents only.

The detailed diagnosis of this measure reveals the following:

  • the current status of clean up process,

  • the list of files that were deleted recently

  • the list of files that were not deleted during the recent clean up process

  • the amount of disk space recovered after the clean up process, etc.
