VM Disk Usage

Overview

The VM Disk Usage alarm monitors the following item:

• For VMware
  Logical disk usage (%) on a virtual machine
  
• For Hyper-V
  This alarm is not available because the VM Logical Disk Status (PI_VLDI) record is not supported.
  

To monitor a specific logical disk or virtual machine, copy this alarm and create an alarm in which "*" is replaced with the logical disk ID or the name of the virtual machine to be monitored.
