Hi Jasper,

Thanks to you and the team for pushing out a fix so quickly.  Unfortunately though the issue I'm having remains.  At present I am using just the server agent.  I had previously been using the AWS agent/monitor as well but stopped that for similar reason... I couldn't exclude disk partitions. That was before the switch to configuration rules though. I'm happy to provide any details that would be helpful in finding this issue.

Thanks,

Brian

Hey Brian,

   Thanks for coming back. We need to look at your account logs for us to troubleshoot further. Can you please contact support@site24x7.com. I'll summarize here once we fix the issue for you.

We are having this issue as well.  Any instance that has the AWS ssm agent alerts for the /snap* partitions.  We are using both EC2 and server monitoring.  Should these partitions automatically be ignored or do we need to create some kind of exclusion list?

Running linux agent version 17.5.6.

Disregard, with the proper configuration rules in place these partitions are being excluded as designed.

Is there an example or FAQ page etc.., instructing how to exclude these in AWS templates?  I haven't been able to find one, and it's not actually in this thread as far as I can see... it's only alluded to that such a configuration solution exists.

Todd, you need to create a configuration rule.  Instructions can be found here www.site24x7.com/help/admin/configuration-rules.html.  In the configuration rule, once you select server monitor as the monitor type, there is an option for exclude disk partition.

Hi!
I'm trying to exclude disk partitions too but IT Automation Templates are empty.

I've tryed create an Automation Template to do same as "Exclude Disk Partitions" but it isn't intuitive to me.
How can I do that?

Hi,

You can exclude disk partitions without associating IT Automation Templates using Configuration Rules. Please follow the steps below:

1. Log in to Site24x7 and go to Admin >  Inventory > Configuration Rules.
2. Click on Add Rule if you are adding a new one or select an existing one from the list.
3. Select the Monitor Type as Server Monitor.
4. Select the Action as Exclude Disk Partitions.
5. Mention the RegEx pattern(s) to exclude specific disk partitions from monitoring.
   For example, to exclude all disk partitions starting with /snap, mention the RegEx as /snap.*
6. Save your changes.

If you wish to associate IT Automation Templates, please create one (if you don't have one) using the option +Add Automation Template in the IT Automation Templates drop-down and then associate them.
Note: This is not a mandatory option.

Hope this helps. Let us know for further queries, if any, in the below thread.

Regards,

Mathangi
