Usualy we doesn't see them...

Hi Christian,

Did you try adding the mount point as a variant in the file system metric to see if it's getting monitored.

Check the below link to see if it helps

Thanks,

Hi Karthikeyan,

thanks for your info. Looks promising.

I'll try that next week and come back to you.

Do you know if there is also the opposite way ?

I mean... Is it possible to remove unwanted filesystem from the monitoring ?

Hi Christoph,

Default template metric "File System" covers all file system (*), so if you want to monitor only few file systems then you have to define values as per document provided by Karthik earlier. You will uncheck the (*) file system variant value so that it doesn't monitor all file system.

This is only way to remove unwanted file system from monitoring.

Thanks,

Thank you both for your answers.

That was what i'm looking for.

Only problem now is, that the customer is moving the systems sometimes from host to host.

Because the filesystem-metric is host-template-relevant i can't use it for SID-specific Monitoring.

Example:

If i configure the metric for /usr/sap/SD1 and the system SD1 is moving, the metric is still monitoring on the old host.

Is there a possibility to create a filesystem-metric in a Technical-Instance-Template ?

Hi Christoph,

As per my knowledge it is not possible to create file system variant metric in Technical Instance.

For database related file system you can utilize metric in Database System template.

Hi Manish,

thank you for your reply...

Which metric do you mean ?

As far as i know, there is only a 'flie-system'-full exception for oracle.

Or are there other metrics in the database-template for file-systems that i don't see ?

Hi Christoph,

Yes, same one (File System Full)... 🙂

Also you can try Advanced Monitoring (tcode GPA_ADMIN).

Thanks,

Manish
