AWS EBS: Limits

Distribution Official part of Checkmk
License GPLv2
Supported Agents Aws
This check monitors the AWS/EBS limits.

To make this check work you have to configure the related special agent Amazon Web Services (AWS).

We get the following default limits:

- Total Block store snapshots: 100000

- Total Magnetic volumes space: 300 TiB

- Total Provisioned IOPS SSD space: 300 TiB

- Total Provisioned IOPS SSD IO operations per second: 300000

- Total General Purpose SSD space: 300 TiB

- Total Cold HDD space: 300 TiB

- Total Throughput Optimized HDD space: 300 TiB

The current value for each limit type is calculated by summing up the related values from API method {describe_volumes}.

With both values we calculate the usage of each limit type in percent.

The default WARN/CRIT levels are set to 80, 90 percent per type.

For each limit type the limit and usage levels are configurable.

The service goes WARN/CRIT if one or more of these levels are exceeded.

If limits are enabled all volumes are fetched regardless of possibly configured restriction to names or tags.
