4.22 LogicalDiskIO

Use this Knowledge Script to monitor the logical disk input/output (I/O) activity. This Knowledge Script monitors the number of logical disk transfers, logical disk reads, and logical disk writes per second. You can set a threshold for each metric. If logical disk I/O exceeds any of the thresholds you set, AppManager raises an event.

NOTE:Oracle Solaris ZFS and ZFS Storage Pools file system monitoring is not available for this Knowledge Script.

Set the following parameters as needed:

Description

How to Set It

Raise event if threshold is exceeded? (y/n)

Set to y to raise events. The default is y.

Collect data for transfers per second? (y/n)

Set to y to collect data for graphs and reports. If enabled, returns the number of transfers per second for each logical disk. The default is n.

Collect data for reads per second? (y/n)

Set to y to collect data for graphs and reports. If enabled, returns the number of reads per second for each logical disk. The default is n.

Collect data for writes per second? (y/n)

Set to y to collect data for graphs and reports. If enabled, returns the number of writes per second for each logical disk. The default is n.

Threshold -- Maximum transfers per second

Specify the maximum number of transfers per second that can occur before an event is raised. The default is 80.

Threshold -- Maximum reads per second

Specify the maximum number of reads per second that can occur before an event is raised. The default is 50.

Threshold -- Maximum writes per second

Specify the maximum number of writes per second that can occur before an event is raised. The default is 50.

Event severity when threshold is exceeded

Set the event severity level, from 1 to 40, to indicate the importance of the event. The default is 5.

Event severity for internal failure

Set the event severity level, from 1 to 40, to indicate the importance of an event in which this job experienced an internal error. The default is 5.

Enable debugging? (y/n)

Set to y to enable debugging. The default is n.
