Last Message Error in FileSystem Overall Status: 'Full'

This error occured on Friday night. It is a channel part of Netapp System Health Status. Can someone please define what this channel is monitoring and why it is giving an error of "Full". I have checked the Netapp and none of the volumes or LUNs are full. Need a bit of clarification on exactly what this does.

Many thanks

Here is a description for 'fsStatus':

Is it possible to disable the alert for this channel of the sensor? I have tried hiding it and setting limits but it always stays in the error state.

Hi James,

You can click on the "FileSystem Overall Status" channel and choose None" for the value lookup. This will prevent the sensor from going down.

Best regards, Felix
