Disk-Space Alerts

You can get alerts for low disk space on PrivX Servers and other PrivX components.

Space Alerts on PrivX Servers

To enable disk-space alerts for PrivX Servers, go to Administration→Settings→Monitor Service, then under Housekeeping, set Monitored Storage Locations.

Set comma-separated alert limits in volume_path:space format. For example:

/:5GB,/var/log:5GB,/var/privx/audit:10GB

Supported size units are GB and TB.

Save and restart to apply your changes. PrivX will raise Disk-full audit events when any of the specified paths falls below the set threshold.

Space Alerts for PrivX Components

To enable disk-space alerts for PrivX components (Extender, Carrier, Web-Proxy), see verify_disk_mounts setting in the PrivX-component-specific .toml configuration files. For example:

# Disk mount points for checking the available space. PrivX will raise alerts, if disk space on these mount points falls below the warning threshold.
# Syntax: "volume_path:alert_threshold"
# Default: verify_disk_mounts = ["/:5GB"]
verify_disk_mounts = [
"/:5GB", "/run:50GB",
]

Supported size units are GB and TB.

Save and restart to apply your changes. Whenever disk space falls below set limits, the PrivX component's status on Monitoring→Status will display a warning.
