Monitor Disk Usage with SNMP

[Geoffrey]

Hello

I would like to monitor the disk usage on our QNAS RS411 DSM 4.0 with SNMP. We use the monitoring tool OpenNMS.

Could somebody tell me how I can do that?

Thanks for any advice.

Kind regards

Geoffrey

i have the same problem. DSM uses net-snmp and does send the data on disks and usage. it seems opennms isnt displaying it.

i have linux servers that use net-snmp and the output is the same. i dont know why opennms wont display it.

Anyone have any idea how to fix this?

i have figured this out. As DSM uses standard linux net-snmp, the same configuration changes to the snmpd.conf file are required to start monitoring disks. First log in as root to command line. open the file /usr/syno/etc/snmpd.conf with vi text editor:

Code: Select all

vi /usr/syno/etc/snmpd.conf

add this line to the end:

Code: Select all

disk /volume1 25000

you can modify the above depending on how your NAS disks are setup. 25000 is the min free space before alerts are sent.

save and exit the file then reboot nas. it should then show up in opennms or any other snmp monitor.
