NT_DynamicLogicalDiskSpace events for drives not selected in the Object tab. (NETIQKB43440)

NT_DynamicLogicalDiskSpace events for drives not selected in the Object tab.

The NT_DynamicLogicalDiskSpace KS is unique in the following ways:

• It will monitor all logical disks on the server and doesn't rely on discovered disk objects.
• It dynamically enumerates all disks on the server at each iteration.
• It has a default set of thresholds you apply to all disks, and you have the ability to override those thresholds on a per-disk basis.
• It is not Cluster aware and expected results are not guaranteed.  You need to use the MSCS_LogicalDiskSpace KS.
• If you wish to only monitor a single logical disk, then you need to use the NT_LogicalDiskSpace KS.

Use MSCS_LogicalDiskSpace to monitor clustered drives.  Netiqmc and netiqccm services must be running as a Domain account which has Local Admin privileges.  Local System will not provide the needed privileges.

 

Formerly known as NETIQKB43440

After the Microsoft Windows OS module version 7.6.170 has been installed NT_DiskSpace should be utilized rather than NT_DynamicLogicalDiskSpace.
