Hello everyone,

I’ve been trying to mute or silence disk alerts for specific mounted volumes, but it hasn’t worked for me.

For example, I have a mounted volume like this:

x:x:x:x:/folder1      2T   1T  1T  50%  /mounted/folder1

I tried adding this to disks.conf:

  info: current disk space usage
    to: silent

…but the alerts are still showing up.

How can I properly silence disk space alerts for specific mounted volumes?

Hey, @Ori. Try using the chart labels option.

@ilyam8 Thanks for your response, How can i add this chart labels,
Do i need to add within netdata.config:

[chart labels]
        # mount_point=!/mnt/disk1 *

Or within disks.config

# you can disable an alarm notification by setting the 'to' line to: silent

# -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
# low disk space

# checking the latest collected values
# raise an alarm if the disk is low on
# available disk space

template: disk_space_usage
      on: disk.space
      os: linux freebsd
   hosts: *
families: *
    calc: $used * 100 / ($avail + $used)
   units: %
   every: 1m
    warn: $this > (($status >= $WARNING ) ? (80) : (90))
    crit: $this > (($status == $CRITICAL) ? (90) : (98))
   delay: up 1m down 15m multiplier 1.5 max 1h
    info: current disk space usage
      to: silent

template: disk_inode_usage
      on: disk.inodes
      os: linux freebsd
   hosts: *
families: !/dev !/dev/* !/run !/run/* *
    calc: $used * 100 / ($avail + $used)
   units: %
   every: 1m
    warn: $this > (($status >= $WARNING)  ? (80) : (90))
    crit: $this > (($status == $CRITICAL) ? (90) : (98))
   delay: up 1m down 15m multiplier 1.5 max 1h
    info: current disk inode usage
      to: silent

chart labels is an alert option. Did you read its description?

If you have an e.g., external disk mounted on /mnt/disk1 and you don’t wish any related disk space alerts running for it (but you do for all other mount points), you can add the following to the alert’s configuration:

chart labels: mount_point=!/mnt/disk1 *
