If a drive is configured with the setting of "No limit" then you could easily run out of disk space without warning. If this condition occurs then the script will exit with a status of critical.
NOTE: It has been observed that the vssadmin command does not report a status of "No limit" if the drive has never had a shadow copy created on it. This is not a huge issue, using this script in Nagios as a daily check will identify the "No limit" drive once a shadow copy has been created.
If a drive is configured with the setting of "Use limit" then a maximum limit must be defined for that drive. This check will compare the current limit against the MAXLIMIT value that you provide. If the current limit is greater than the MAXLIMIT then the script will exit with a status of critical.
This script will check all drives and use the MAXLIMIT value that you provide to check against all drives.
Usage:
check_vss_shadowstorage.cmd --MAXLIMIT
Example: Checking all drives, critical status will be returned if they exceed the limit of 345 MB
check_vss_shadowstorage.cmd --MAXLIMIT 345
