[gpfsug-discuss] filesystem thresholds in gui alerting

[Stefan Schmidt]

Hi Jan-Frode Myklebust,

The current GUI-internal logic has a hard coded warning level of 80% and 
an hard-coded error level of 90%.

With 4.2.2 the system health monitoring will have thresholds set and 
monitored via ZIMON and the system health
component will provide events. With 4.2.2 those can be changed with an mm 
command.

In general it is not a good idea to let a filesystem get loaded 100%. It 
could be, if this is done with the filesystem used by the system to store 
some configuration data, that the system can run into an error (usually 
this is the filesystem we call gpfs0).

I suggest you get the 4.2.2 version which will GA quite soon. I have to 
apologize that I'm not allowed to talk about GA dates. If you want to get 
this feature earlier you may contact IBM and ask for participation on the 
beta program which starts very soon but the beta code is usually limited 
to non productive systems.

As said , ask your IBM contact for the 4.2.2 GA update ( hopefully GA is 
soon) and you can get this feature you are looking for.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Kind regards

Does anybody know if there are any way to define what thresholds are to be 
used for alterting in the GUI? F.ex. we have some filesystems that are 
very full, but won't be getting any more data added.. we'd like to turn 
off monitoring of these, are raise the threshold to allow them to be ~100% 
full.
