Issue/Introduction

After creating an autowatch for filesystems in SystemEDGE, we are receiving traps for filesystems that are not needed, such as those created in /run when a user logs in/out.

Environment

SystemEDGE all supported versions

Resolution

When creating an autowatch specific filesystems can be excluded as needed:


Here is an example of the autowatcher in the sysedge.cf that filters out /var/cache/audit

autowatch -index=11 -name='All FileSystems - Warning' -watchtype=generic -table=devTableEntry -attribute=devCapacity -criteria=.* -op=ge -value=95 -severity=warning -interval=300 -desc='FileSystem Usage (percentage)' -monflags=0x0 -matchtype=positive -criteria2=devMntPt -criteria2regex=/var/cache/audit -matchtype2=negative -stype=absolute -scale=1 -objclass=FileSystem -objattr=PercentUsed -watchflags=0x0 -scaninterval=300 -limit=100 -loss=fatal
