Jon00 Disk Monitor for Homeseer 3 & Homeseer 4

[jon00]

**** Compatible with both Windows & Linux ***

This script enables you to monitor the disk capacity for all hard drives on your Homeseer PC or server. Virtual devices are automatically created displaying a horizontal bar chart with the free, used and total capacity displayed in Gigabytes. The chart will change from cyan to red if there is less than 10% space remaining on the drive. The remaining free space, free space % or used space (configurable) is also stored in the device value which can be used for triggering events for low disk space etc. It can also be optionally logged to individual log files each time the script is run.

If you use my Remote Computer Control and Network Monitor Package, it can also display remote drive capacity wherever you have remote clients installed (Windows only).

As always, it is available on my site. Click on my banner below.

Any issues, please let me know.

Hi Jon,

I was trying your script but with i get a error.

Oops, something I forgot to put in the docs:

Open up Settings.ini and add this to the end of your ScriptingReferences entry:

,System.Management;System.Management.dll

Edit: The docs have now been updated!

Like ESSCHENK I too am receiving the error above.
I have added the ;System.Management;System.Management.dll
to the settings.ini and restarted HS but still no joy.

ScriptingReferences=System.Web;System.web.dll;System.Managem ent;System.Management.dll

Any help appreciated.

FWIW my HS is running on the D Drive.

My mistake with the semicolon, try:

ScriptingReferences=System.Web;System.web.dll,System.Management;System.Management.dll

Paypal's going to make some money on FX commission if one guy in the UK sends greenbacks to another guy in the UK.

Can this script have any capability to detect a HD problem? I have a RAID1 setup in my HS server and I was wondering if this could be possible or maybe a future feature option to detect this type of situation.

[Rotech]

Bump.

[jon00]

Sorry missed this - No it is not designed for that.

You could look at http://winraidmonitor.sourceforge.net/ or http://www.acronis.com/en-us/persona...-drive-health/ if you are worried about Raid failure.

Hi Jon,

Just trying Drive Monitor tonight and getting the error below.

Aug-29 9:53:38 PM	 	Error 3	Running script C:\Program Files\HomeSeer HS3\scripts\Jon00DiskMonHS3.vben :Object reference not set to an instance of an object.->Does entry point Network exist in script? at A.c17b105f989efe61e5979e67bec1ef734.cffd66cb0782c50126727e3fa75582d7a()

My settings.ini file contains the lines below and I've restarted HS after I added that line.

[settings]
ScriptingReferences=System.Management;System.Management.dll

I'm running HS3 on XP. Any ideas what could be wrong?

Thanks
Al

I reckon you used an existing event.

Go back to the event and check the 'sub or function' and 'parameters' fields for the script are empty.

Yes, that' what it was. I actually created a copy of the event to run your network monitoring script, and then changed the script, but forgot to empty the sub field. Kind of funny, by trying to save a few seconds of time, I probably spent 30 minutes on troubleshooting. I had assumed it had something to do with the scripting references, so during my troubleshooting did not look at the event. In hind sight the error seems kind of obvious.

Script works great and thanks for the quick response.

Cheers
Al
