Some times my disk space is used upto 100% due to the application logs .
So this script is to monitor the disk space usage and wall message to the users about the disk space usage if it exceeds the limit set in the script. Here for example the limit is set to 80%. This job is added in cron to execute in a time frame.
I am using this on solaris machines . You can adopt it on any unix/linux machine.
Code:
#!/bin/ksh
# This script checks the percentage of disk usuage and walls messages if its greater then 80%
typeset -i error="80"
if [ -e diskusage.txt ];
then
rm diskusage.txt
fi
if [ -e diskusage1.txt ];
then
rm diskusage1.txt
fi
for disc in `df -h| egrep '^/dev' | egrep -iv 'cdrom|proc|sys|pts' |awk '{print $6}'`
do
/usr/sbin/df -h $disc| cut -c46-47|grep -i [1-9] >> diskusage1.txt
discUsage=`cat diskusage1.txt `
rm diskusage1.txt
if [ "$discUsage" -ge "$error" ];
then
echo "Disc usage for $disc is at $discUsage%" >> diskusage.txt
fi
done
if [ -e diskusage.txt ];
then
message=`cat diskusage.txt`
fi
if [ ${#message} -gt 0 ];
then
cat diskusage.txt | wall
fi
Hello,
I am trying to find a shell script to monitor diskspace. When the script encounteres a disk which above the treashold, I want an email notification.

acctsuspend(5) File Formats Manual acctsuspend(5)NAME
acctsuspend, acctresume - suspend and resume accounting when available disk space reaches threshold
VALUES

Default.
Default
acctsuspend:
acctresume:
Allowed values
acctresume:
acctsuspend:
Recommended values
acctsuspend:
acctresume: (But more than acctsuspend)
DESCRIPTION
The and tunables control when accounting stops and resumes due to disk space constraints. When free disk space on the file system being
used by accounting reaches the suspension threshold, which is the percentage relative to the percentage of disk space available only to the
superuser, accounting is suspended until such time as the free disk space reaches the resumption threshold, which is the percentage rela-
tive to the percentage of disk space available only to the superuser.
Note: Since the and values are specified relative to the percentage of disk space available only to the superuser, negative values
of these parameters can make sense. For example, if the superuser has reserved 10 percent of the disk space on the file system at
file system creation time, and acctsuspend is -5 and acctresume is 0, the suspension threshold will be 5 percent of the total disk
space and the resumption threshold will be 10 percent of the total disk space.
Who Is Expected to Change This Tunable?
Anyone using accounting.
Restrictions on Changing
Changes to this tunable take effect at the next reboot.
When Should the Value of This Tunable Be Raised?
Increasing either variable should be considered when it is necessary to maintain a higher percentage of free space on the accounting
filesystem.
What Are the Side Effects of Raising the Value of This Tunable?
The higher either value is, the less accounting data may be captured. The further the values are separated, the greater the amount of
potentially lost accounting data.
When Should the Value of This Tunable Be Lowered?
If additional disk space is needed for accounting data, and it cannot be obtained by moving files off of the filesystem, then the value of
should be lowered.
What Are the Side Effects of Lowering the Value of This Tunable?
Filesystem performance (writing accounting records) decreases as the filesystem fills up. In turn, this will decrease the overall perfor-
mance of accounting processes.
What Other Tunables Should Be Changed at the Same Time?
When changing either of these tunables, both should be considered.
