Logical Disk Overview (PI_LDSK)

Function

The Logical Disk Overview (PI_LDSK) record stores performance data, taken at a specific interval, about the capacity of a logical disk at the monitored host. This is a multi-instance record.

Notes

• If the connection to the monitored host fails, the information cannot be collected.
• If you collect this record in a Windows environment, note the following:
  
  • This record collects performance information for hard disk drives and fixed disk drives. Performance information for other devices (such as network disks) cannot be monitored.
  • If a disk volume corresponding to the ID (ID) field is not accessible due to the security settings, no record for that disk volume is created. To create a record for such a disk volume, change the security settings so that the user account specified for User in the monitoring target settings can be used to access the disk volume.
  • If no drive letter or drive path is assigned to the disk volume, 0 is set in the Size (SIZE) field.
  • If multiple drive letters or drive paths are assigned to the same disk volume, 0 may be set in the Size (SIZE) field.
  • If you have changed the drive letter or drive path of a disk volume, you must restart the modified monitoring target. If you attempt to collect records without restarting the monitoring target, the record for that disk volume may not be collected. Even if the record is collected, the Size (SIZE) field may contain a value of 0 and the ID (ID) field may contain the logical disk volume name before the change was made.
