Setting up WMI free disk Sensor for Client that is offline from time to time (meeting room client)

Votes:

0

Hello,

I want to monitor the disk space for multiple clients which we use in our meeting rooms.

The sensor is setup, but I do have problems to configure the quiry schedule proberly.

What I would like to have is, a sensor that doenst give warnings when the client/sensor is not available, but only when it is available AND the disk space warning limit is reached.

Is that even possible?

We are using: PRTG Network Monitor 17.3.33.2830 x64

Thanks for your help!

Best, Sascha

Dear Sascha,

this setup is not possible. The closest option would be to work with disk space error limit, and setup a Factory sensor with a custom status formula setting the factory sensor only to down if the first source sensor is up and the other one down. The manual page has a chapter "Define sensor status—status() function", describing the formula syntax.
