Fixed wrong value calculation for filesystem usage. Now the factor 1024 is used.

Removed the performance data for the filesystem usage and amount of files.

Reasons for this decision:

  • Graphing system is not able to handle such kind of dynamic performance variables like
    • group_USERNAME_blocks
    • group_USERNAME_files
    • USERNAME_blocks
    • USERNAME_files
  • Generated graphs use the standard logarithmic scale for painting the filesystem usage. This view is not useful for the user and makes the handling complicated.

The check will work as expected and does not need further user modifications or configurations.
