I changed the hdd temperature threshold for the disks, but they do not get applied:
what is wrong with my configuration?
Hello Stefan,
Does the service name also start with WDC or is there something else in front of it? Sometimes it is prefixed with Temperature, HDD, Sensor or something similar.
Otherwise try it with .*WDC.*
Kind regards.
Service name is āDISK: sdaā for example, but there is a sensor-ID mentioned not a service. As I read on internet the sensor should start with WDC.* or ST.* or similar. tried it with ā.WDC.ā but no luck.
WDC.* is mentioned in the output of the service, so this should be alright, but isnānt.
What you enter in the ruleset in āSensor IDā must be part of the service name. This has nothing to do with the internal name of the Sensor.
The rule matches the service name, in this case the sensor ID should be part of it.
But āDISK: sdaā doesnāt sound like a temperature checkā¦
Perhaps the temperature is only additional information here, but not configurable in the rule.
For example, for a PaloAlto, the services for temperatures look like this:
The rule looks like this:
Another way to create the rule for your service:
Go to āParameter for this serviceā via the menu on the service
Then you can already see if there are suitable rules:
Click on āTemperatureā and then at the top on āAdd rule for current hosts and sensor idā.
You will then see in the ruleset what needs to be entered for this explicit sensor ID. You can then expand the value with a RegEx expression for multiple sensors.

That may be.
Unfortunately, I donāt know which check applies to your hard disk and how it is built up, so I canāt say where the temperature comes from and how it is taken into consideration in this check.
If you cannot enter any temperature values as threshold values via the āparamter for this serviceā method, the value may only serve as information.
Is a temperature currently displayed for the disk at all?
Or have you tried to get the temperature into the check via the Rulest? Unfortunately, that wonāt work this way.
If you make a discovery on the hosts and let show the plugin names (Display > Show plug in name), which name is displayed there?
Found it, itās the smart-plugin that sends temperature status. but there are no options to configure smart temeperatures in checkmk if i am correct.
If you go the āParameters of this serviceā way, Marc suggested, you should see, which rule set configures this service. Worst case, it is not configurable. But I would at least check.
