Thank you.

Hello there,
thank you for your inquiry.

The SNMP Disk Free sensor for example has a "Total" channel that you can use to confirm the total size of the disk. This is a secondary channel and is only visible after clicking on the sensor to view the sensor overview.

Hello,

I found the "Total" channel, but it gives me the total size of all disks on the server. So if I have: C: 60GB D: 200GB E: 100GB

Total channel will give me 360GB.

How can I use the total channel to give me the total of all disk separately?

Thank you.

Hello Jonathan,

In this case you need to select each disks channel for the report as it is not possible to change the way the "Total" channel works, neither in the sensor nor in the report.

Kind regards,

Erhard

Hello,

Thank you for the answer. I will think on the way we work with Disk Free sensor and "Total" channel.

Best Regards, Jonathan
