Managing Disk Space
Most computer systems run out of disk space at some time. In practice one of the main tasks of any system administrator is to check that none of the partitions run out of space. This should be done on a regular basis.
FOXMAN‑UN offers two simple ways for checking available disk space:
• The Remote Admin Tool contains a disk status function. This shows the percentage of disk space used for any partition. For details refer to Disk Information.
• The System Monitoring Tool can be programmed to create alarms if particular partitions exceed a specified of disk space used. The tool has to be run to perform the checks. This can be done manually or on a regular basis using a cronjob. For details refer to System Monitoring Tool (smtool).
