update server stat graphs

[NoDoze]

not sure if this one is fixable...but I'll put it out there....

originally, I had the zimbra server opt dir with the OS....on this server a hard drive died in the RAID1.

On the backup server, I created the opt dir on a second RAID1. The OS on a RAID1, the opt on a RAID1.

I've completed the repair of the original server, upgraded the HDs, so now it too has the OS on a RAID1, and the opt on a RAID1.

I mirrored everything back ok, but still have not made it publicly active. SO access right now is only via the ip.

When looking at the zimbra admin web ui...at the server statistics... because the original had the opt with the OS, the graphs disk usage is now blank!

How would I let zimbra know where to monitor for disk usage and graph it properly?

also note: the original server had software RAID so it was in /dev/md0 ...but now it's on a hardware raid, so its now on just a partition /opt

Thanks!

My 'mount'

[root@mail local]# mount
/dev/mapper/isw_eabfbdjicj_OSp3 on / type ext3 (rw)
proc on /proc type proc (rw)
sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw)
devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620)
/dev/mapper/isw_dgehbdifai_OPTp1 on /opt type ext3 (rw)
/dev/mapper/isw_eabfbdjicj_OSp1 on /boot type ext3 (rw)
tmpfs on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw)
none on /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc type binfmt_misc (rw)
sunrpc on /var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs type rpc_pipefs (rw)

ok....found this:
Change server statistics disk tab to a different patition

So basically...

$MNTCMD = "mount -t ext3,reiserfs";

in line 48 of /opt/zimbra/libexec/zmdisklog

but what's this about?

To get it to only show for reiserfs partitions (/ and /tmp, or device wise /dev/mapper/system-root and /dev/mapper/system-tmp)

so...what would I put...???

[NoDoze]

woops...

I got the graphs to show up...but I don't think they're the correct drives, and now it says the stats are offline...?

[NoDoze]

Uhmmm....ok....

I restarted the entire server, not just zimbra....

The stats came back online, everything is online....but now the graphs are empty again for just disk usage....what's going on!?!

...well, I have 1.25TB of free space now...are the graphs just not able to graph that high...? ...is there a limit to them...?

Thanks!

If you read the thread that you linked the person was having an issue where a reiserfs partition was not showing up in the disk stats. Since all of your partitions that I would imagine you care to monitor are ext3 the default Zimbra 5.0.x and below configuration of only monitoring ext3 partitions should work for you.

As for a limit it is possible that the tool used to generate the graphs has a problem with numbers that large, but I don't have a system that I can test it with. Anybody else know the answer to that?

[NoDoze]

ahhh...ok....

yea, the graphs are only showing MB on the axis... which is why I suspected it had a limit of some sort...Hmmm... hopefully someone answers...

Thanks for the info
