Description
This article describes how to set up alerts for inode utilization when it crosses a defined threshold.
Procedure
The alert can be set using Active IQ Unified Manager. It can notify on specific volumes, or on all volumes using the dynamic << All Volumes >> resource.
First, configure the thresholds to the desired value. The global defaults are 80% for 'Inodes Nearly Full' and 90% for 'Inodes Full'.
- Login to the Active IQ Unified Manager web UI with an user that has the 'Storage Administrator' or 'OnCommand Administrator' role.
- Expand the 'Event Thresholds' section of the navigation column.
- Click on the 'Volume' section to view global threshold settings and set the preferred global values.
Note: Should there be a need for different threshold settings for a specific volume, navigate to that volume and click the 'Actions > Edit Thresholds' to view and set the same options for only that volume.
