Sending wrong alert for disk usage

[Dennis Raj]

Hi Support,

               We are using monit for hard disk motioning. We are getting a wrong alert regarding the disk space. Actually we put 70% as threshold. But monit is sending alert at 64% telling that we are using more that 70%.

In df -h, the result is

Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda1             9.9G  5.7G  3.7G   61%     /

Our configuration is  as follows

check device root with path /dev/sda1
        if space usage > 70% then alert

Waiting for your reply,

Thanks and regards,
Dennis Raj
