Monitor Large file copy to file server

Votes:

0

Is there a way to monitor a large file copy to a file server (either multiple folders being copied or several files or both)? For example, if a user copies over 10gb of files to a network share in one file copy. I tried using the file server sensor but I didn't see any such options. Might be a custom script.

Please advise.

Hello,

Currently there is no native sensor in PRTG to monitora large file copy, sorry. However, you might write a script which pulls the data and then run the same using one of the script sensors PRTG offers.
