Re: BSD testing

[Martin]

The syntax for device stuff is simple, the simplest portable form:

check device with path /
  if space usage > 90% then alert
  if inode usage > 90% then alert
  alert address@hidden

It is more safe to use block special device in the path instead of mountpoint.

You can use uid, gid and permission tests too (i don't know BSD - the bellow 
uid, gid and permissions are used on debian), for example:

check device with path /dev/ad1s4
  if failed uid root then alert
  if failed gid disk then alert
  if failed permission 660 then alert
  if space usage > 90% then alert
  if inode usage > 90% then alert
  alert address@hidden

Actually, what would really help would be if someone could send me a
real world snippet of monitrc to test the device stuff - that's been my
hangup so far is that I haven't had the time to understand the syntax
and make a working monitrc with the new stuff.
