Hard line and free space

Hi all

I tried to create a threshold that is difficult to control when a file in a VM disk system reaches a certain threshold as free space. However, I understand that you can not set a percentage value (that is, you cannot set a warning when the free disk space is 20% of the total), but the precise value of the remaining space (that I can put a warning when free space is smaller, for example, of 30 GB). Can someone help me?

Matrix

Hi Matrix,

Yes, you can make a % of the value. This should be done using a metric Super. Here is an example of one I made:

100 (100 * ((avg ($This:A909))/(avg($This:A913))))

It's the explanation: 100 - (100 * ((avg (cette ressource: espace disque |)))) Virtual Disk used (GB))) / (avg (this resource: space |)) Space set aside (GB)))

Here's my blog on how to create and assign great metric to an object: http://www.virtualclouds.co.za/?p=254

That you get.

  • daafiles used and free space

    HII everyone,
    I want to check the space used and free of all my (10.2.0.3) database data files, 5,7 redhat platform.
    your help is very appreciated thanks.

    Published by: 938946 on December 31, 2012 04:38

    Your query is unnecessarily complicated and aggregation has messed up.

    View dba_data_files, dba_temp_files, and v$ temp_space_header all have one line per tablespace data file. So, you need to aggregate the values based on the name of the tablespace.

    Similarly, dba_free_space contains a line by "block" of the free space in the tablespace. So, if your tablespace apps_ts say 4 blocks of free space, then it will have 4 rows for the apps_ts tablespace. Yet once, you will need to overall based on tablespace name before anything else.

    The tablespace temp will almost never have any free space because if the Oracle way works. Once a measure is created in the temp tablespace that he is never deallocated. When the transaction who "created" the measure is finished using it, it is marked as being available for other sessions, but it is so more free space.

    The query below, that's what I think you are looking for regular storage space. If you really need to show the temp tablespace, then you can add a third request from the union to that all interview to watch dba_temp_files. If there is a free space in the tablespace temp it will appear in dba_free_space.

    select tablespace_name,
           round(sum(allocated_space) / 1024 / 1024, 2) "Size (MB)",
           round(sum(free_space) / 1024 / 1024, 2) "Free (MB)",
           round((sum(free_space)/sum(allocated_space)) * 100, 2) "% Free",
           round(((sum(allocated_space) - sum(free_space))/sum(allocated_space)) * 100, 2) "%Used"
    from (select tablespace_name, bytes allocated_space, 0 free_space
          from dba_data_files
          union all
          select tablespace_name, 0 allocated_space, bytes free_space
          from dba_free_space)
    group by tablespace_name
    Order by 4

  • Free space on hard drive shown incorrectly

    My drive C (SW_Preload) has about 200 GB of space. When I click on 'Computer' in windows Explorer, it says that the total free space is 20 GB of used space 180 GB IE. However, when I select all folders and files on my C drive and select properties it shows the total size on disk is only 70 GB. I don't have this with the other readers (Lenovo and SERVICEV003).

    Does anyone know why this is so? My basket is empty and runnign short space when I know that there is still plenty of space on the drive (the laptop is only 3 months and I copied only 1-2 records this to that).

    Hello Hitchkee,

    Thank you for choosing Microsoft answers forums for Windows Vista. I hope you do well.

    To reduce the number of unnecessary files on your hard disk to free up disk space and help your computer run faster, you can use disk cleanup. It removes temporary files, empty the Recycle Bin, and removes a variety of file system and other items that you no longer need. Follow the link below for more details:

    http://windowshelp.Microsoft.com/Windows/en-us/help/1264bc24-72a8-48AA-84e3-a355327139d91033.mspx

    There are a number of issues that contribute to the difference:

    Hidden and system files -Windows Explorer display above was using the default settings that do not display the files marked as 'hidden' or 'system', and therefore, they are not included in the calculation. Change this setting increases the "size on disk" by about 7 gigabytes that all the hidden files on my machine have been included in the calculation. In particular, which included the system pagefile and hibernation, which are large file and marked as hidden.

    To change the settings, you can follow the steps below:

    Start Windows Explorer, and then:
    Click on the Tools menu
    Click the folder menu item Options...
    Click the view tab
    In the advanced settings list, scroll down until you see the hidden files and folders and Hide protected operating system files.
    Make sure that the hidden files and folders is selected. I also uncheck Hide operating system files - for the same reason protected: I don't want to hide it from me, the Windows files.

    Directories - directories, or lists and indexes of files on your machine are not the files themselves, but they don't take place.

    The Table of Allocation of file or the master file Table - FAT itself, Hall of Fame of FAT file system, is actually pretty low. The MFT, however, used in NTFS file systems is also stored on the disk but not visible as a file. It defines where the used and free space on a drive is actually. Depending on the size of your drive, your files and the size of the allocation unit, the MFT can be quite large.

    The log file - this is a file, but even once, you won't see it. It's NTFS internal data.

    Hope this information is useful.

    Kind regards

  • No free space after deleting files - trouble with optimized storage?

    Hi, I have macos Sierra and I deleted many files to my main drive and also to my external hard drive (both to the Mac OS Extended format) in preparation for the boot camp. I also emptied the Recycle Bin, although there is much less space on the two disks that it should be and the majority of the space is obviously indicated under "purgeable". I thought it would not be a problem, because I assumed that the space would be released, if I move all of the files there and if I need for the new Windows partition. However, this assumption was false. I can't simply use storage that I released. I can't move there all the files and I can't create the partition from free space. What can I do with it? It's pretty frustrating... Thanks for the help!

    You must use the Bootcamp Assistant to create the Bootcamp partition.

    Please provide details on the total space and free space on your internal drive. Post screenshots of what you see in system-> storage information. In addition, select the drive in Finder-I press control and post a screenshot of the window read the information.

  • disk cleanup does not add any free space on a local disk C

    Windows 7 has been reinstalled and nothing seems to just I have 750 GB hard disk, but it shows only 698. I use disk cleanup, but free space is never added to a local drive C before windows 7 has been reinstalled I would delete system restore points and free space is always added to C Local dell drive replaced the hard drive and the motherboard. is there a way to check why no free space has been added and why I only show 698 GB when I have 750 I jump someone has an answer

    There are things which never appear even though you have set to see hidden and system folders.  There is a free program called Treesize that you can download from http://www.download.com which will show you everything on your hard drive.  One thing about the 750 GB 698 vs.  People judge 1000 K, but windows account in binary, which means that a K is 1024.  So when count you in decimal, you will get the 750 000 000, but in binary, it's less.

    Good luck.

  • LUN showing sufficient free space but VMware showing low on space!

    Hello

    I have a very strange problem on a loan SAN, I don't have on hand the model number for the moment, but it's a PS6000 with NL - SAS drives.

    When I look in VMware to the DRLUN01 it seems that there is only 149 GB of free. When I look at the same SAN logical unit number, he says he has 985 GB free!

    The SAN is running the latest firmware and is connected to a server ESXi 4.1.0 through iSCSI. The LUN contains replicas of Veeam my production systems. When I talked to Veeam they notify that they have seen this twice but only know that Dell has solved the problems.

    As I'm not offered no support, even if I'm likely to spend August 20 k with Dell and have the Support Pro on my production SAN, I was wondering if someone can get ideas?

    Thank you

    Greg

    If you have allocated (from the point of view ESX) all your space so it is a different matter.  ESX needs free space to work properly.  Temp files, the swapfiles, newspapers and snapshots of VMware.   For example, I usually create volumes of 600GO (in general), I leave at least 100 GB free.  If that gets close, I create a new data store and move the virtual machines or simply create the new on the new data store.

    Re: ESX knows.   Basics of basic/SCSI disk.  At the level of the storage disk, there is no "files" there are only blocks.   Each block has an address, called a LBA, logical block addressing.  Each volume (disk) reports so that its ability to the controller.

    The volume (disk) starts at LBA 0 and goes to the LBA The ESX server keeps a table of total blocks and when you make an entry, it selects and for use LBA.   LBA (and data) are written in the volume (disk).

    The table knows also how each volume is great, so he knows how many blocks there.   ESX server sends that data with the LBA ESX choose to use, at the same time, it will update the allocation table which is on this VMFS volume...  The table can then locate LBA (X) and write the data here.

    So, since you gave us (X) MB, we can infer that from the free space of the total volume.   Works fine as long as you never delete anything.   A removal of ESX is a WRITING on the VMFS allocation table.  We record this writing as others.   There is nothing to say the array, AMLA (X) is no longer used, so return to the Member's area.   This is where the new command comes in cancel the MAPPING.  Now the server can send a command that tells unallocate (free) LBA (X).   Use space will go down and free space on this member will go up.

    Re: Re-use of Array.   So since it's the ESX Server that determines the LBA to use, it will be re - write down as needed.

    Re: Free to the declaration space.  # Important indicator is what the operating system said, not the table.  Finally when SCSI UNMAP is indeed those two will be much closer together.   If a VMFS volume goes to 100%, you're in trouble.   ESX will no longer be a LBA list to choose from.  Entries will fail and VMs will go down.

    The table in use is assistance to make sure that you attach no more space than you did.

    That is if you had a table of 2 TB, you can create a volume thin MUCH bigger than available.  But up to what you actually write more than 2 TB, of a data value, you're fine.  If you do, then the table runs out of space and volumes to disconnect and all virtual machines would stop.  This gauge to judge when to buy more storage.

    If w/o UNMAP, finally the EQL GUI does NOT reflect the free space for a volume.

    Bottom line, follow what ESX (or any server) said being used and free space on a volume.

    Best?
