Updated Script

Hey Everyone, this script was very nice but it also had some weird irritations so I reworked it and added:

– Allow empty Warning/Critical values
– Added Modes so that you can check Disk IOs, Disk Queue, or Disk Wait Times

– To see the usage information use check_diskio.sh -h

Sorry I don’t have this anywhere on the web so I’m just going to paste it here:

# Version 0.0.2 – Jan/2009
# Changes: added device verification
#
# by Thiago Varela – [email protected]
#
# ————————————–
#
# Version 0.0.3 – Dec/2011
# Changes:
# – changed values from bytes to mbytes
# – fixed bug to get traffic data without comma but point
# – current values are displayed now, not average values (first run of iostat)
#
# by Philipp Niedziela – [email protected]
#
# Version 0.0.4 – April/2014
# Changes:
# – Allow Empty warn/crit levels
# – Can check I/O, WAIT Time, or Queue
#
# by Warren Turner

bc=`which bc 2>/dev/null`

function help {
echo -e ”
Usage:

-d =
–Device to be checked. Example: “-d sda”

-i = IO Check Mode
–Checks Total Disk IO, Read IO/Sec, Write IO/Sec, Bytes Read/Sec, Bytes Written/Sec
–warning/critical = Total IO,Read IO/Sec,Write IO/Sec,Bytes Read/Sec,Bytes Written/Sec

-q = Queue Mode
–Checks Disk Queue Lengths
–warning/critial = Total Queue Length,Read Queue Length,Write Queue Length

-W = Wait Time Mode
–Check the time for I/O requests issued to the device to be served. This includes the time spent by the requests in queue and the time spent servicing them.
–warning/critical = Avg I/O Wait Time/ms,Read Wait Time/ms,Write Wait Time/ms
