jcrival · ‎04-15-2013

Helo, I am new using Splunk. I have installed Splunk forwarder on Windows 2003 server. I would like to configure an alert so everytime the disk is getting full an email would be sent to my email address. The same if the server was turned off or not detected in the network. Could you plase help me?

regards,

Jose Rivera

If you are already collecting WMI data you can build a search like such:

sourcetype="WMI:FreeDiskSpace"  PercentFreeSpace<10

Otherwise you will need to Enable some WMI inputs and you should read this: Monitor WMI-based data

After you are getting the intended search results , follow this About Alerts to create an alert that meets your needs.
