this seems to be a weird way to monitor the disk usage of your servers.

why don't you just send mails with the filesystems with a usage greater 90%? then you don't have to read through all filesystems


if this systems are in your responsibility, consider using a monitoring tool such as xymon

red : Xymon - Status @ Thu Dec 29 11:01:22 2011

and trigger mails from the monitoring server

@funksen -- maybe he wants a "hard copy" of the daily report of the usage, not only when it gets low.

Hi funksen, Thanks all these servers belong to our client so he may not allow us to install such tools. Even he does there is lot of approval process which takes few months of time.
We initially thought of sending mails only of file systems > 90% but what our management is really looking at is a daily complete well formatted report.

@ajaypatil_am Did you get sendmail to send you the MIME-formatted mail? If so, the next step is fairly trivial.

> which sendmail
