Re: [PLUG] /var partition full
|
I don't know of any tool, but, hey this is unix. you could write on in
five min. Just use cut in shell to grap the field in df where you have the
size and compare to 100 (or 90), then use mail to email you. I have a
similar program in perl to tell me when the daemon I'm beta testing dies.
If you need some more help, post the script and I'll help out. I'm best in
perl, but sh would work great, python is also good.
Drop the script in /etc/cron.hourly (make sure root can run).
