Summary: Huge BUG in check_disk

Initial Comment:
I updated 59 servers and im not happy i did. i was thinking everything was working good but one disk was full. did forget to start on that server.

Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda2              32G   26G  4.9G  84% /
/dev/sda1              99M   15M   79M  16% /boot
none                 1004M     0 1004M   0% /dev/shm

[root at krusty (May 20 - 11:37pm) - /usr/local/nagios/libexec] ./check_disk -w10% -c5% -p /
DISK OK - free space: / 4918 MB (15% inode=97%);| /=25825MB;29150;30769;0;32389

always disk OK and in the meantime its almost full. how can i solve this?

THIS IS URGENT!!! And im sure another people agree on that. Disk Status is one of the most urgent things. i hope this can be fixed ASAP!!!

hi hans,

as hendrik already described.. everything is fine - at least if the output
is from the problem host. check_disk thresholds are *Free Space*
thresholds, so if fhere is more free space than -w/-c everything is fine.

Hey Hans,

URGENT or not, IMHO if you tell check_disk that you want to have a warning
on 10% free disk space and a critical on 5% of free disk space and if you
have 16% of free disk space all is OK.

See: check_disk --help for this:

 -w, --warning=INTEGER
   Exit with WARNING status if less than INTEGER --units of disk are free
 -w, --warning=PERCENT%
   Exit with WARNING status if less than PERCENT of disk space is free
 -c, --critical=INTEGER
   Exit with CRITICAL status if less than INTEGER --units of disk are
free
 -c, --critical=PERCENT%
   Exit with CRITCAL status if less than PERCENT of disk space is free
