Hi Guys,
Bit of a strange problem here, wondering if anyone can help!
Ive just installed 2 new FreeBSD 5.3 machines and used gmirror to
software raid 2 disks together.
When ive added a check_disk check into nagios im getting back some
strange results!
>From the box
doc-store02# df -lkhi
Filesystem Size Used Avail Capacity iused ifree
%iused Mounted on
/dev/mirror/gm0s1a 248M 35M 193M 15% 984 32038 3% /
devfs 1.0K 1.0K 0B 100% 0 0 100% /dev
/dev/mirror/gm0s1g 127G 9.9G 107G 8% 1453640 15809974 8% /apps
/dev/mirror/gm0s1e 989M 390K 910M 0% 9 141301 0% /tmp
/dev/mirror/gm0s1f 1.9G 155M 1.6G 9% 9934 272688 4% /usr
/dev/mirror/gm0s1d 989M 6.9M 903M 1% 144 141166 0% /var
Now im only really interested in /apps (at least thats where im seeing
the problem)
df reports it as being 8% used, however when using check_disk i get
the following back
doc-store02# ./libexec/check_disk -v
DISK OK - free space: / 193 MB (78%); /dev 0 MB (0%); /apps 109881 MB
(84%); /tmp 910 MB (92%); /usr 1665 MB (84%); /var 903 MB (91%);|
/=54MB;247;247;0;247 /dev=0MB;0;0;0;0
/apps=20542MB;130423;130423;0;130423 /tmp=80MB;989;989;0;989
/usr=314MB;1978;1978;0;1978 /var=86MB;989;989;0;989
Above you can see that check_disk has reported it as being 16% used,
exactly twice the usage as it really has.
Im assuming its related to using gmirror and the way in which
check_disk gathers its values to make its calculation? Any chance its
getting the used space from both disks and adding it together?
