Name:

• diskusage

Description:

• This action program is run by the Disk Usage Alert when file system free space drops to a critical level. To free disk space it identifies files that can be compressed or removed.

• If the approval keyword is set to true, a list of commands to remove and compress the required files will be sent to the administrator for approval.

• To be eligible for compression, the file must be older than the compress_age keyword value, in days. To be eligible for removal, the file must be older than the remove_age keyword value.

• To safeguard files or directories, you may specify a list of directories not to be tested via the skip_dirs keyword. Alternatively, whole file systems may be skipped via the skip_fs keyword. You should nominate directories and file systems which are certain not to contain files which need to be removed or compressed. This will save unnecessary testing.

skip_fs - File systems to be omitted from testing.

skip_dirs - Directories to be omitted from testing.

skip_files - File patterns to omit from testing

compress_files - Files to compress.

remove_files - Files to remove.

compress_age - Minimum age before files may be compressed.
