How to add drive space alert on IP monitor?

Question

I am the administrator on a Windows server(GSNAPRINT) installed with IPmonitor tool. I want to add an drive space alert for another server (GSCTTLBACKUP) but was not successful.

But there were other file shares which were added to the same server (GSCTTLBACKUP).

I would like to attach the screenshot, but it requires 10 reputations to post images. I request the community to provide the same. After I log on the GSNAPRINT server web console and I click on "Return to Device View" where I am not finding the second option.

I am following this link https://support.ipmonitor.com/helps/649580d2e53d4207813667c9a7db0f12.aspx for configuring, but I am not able to find the second step as mentioned below.

2. Click the Monitors menu option, then select Add a Monitor.

SNMP services are enabled on GSCTTLBACKUP server.

Kindly help me!

I'm not sure there's a way to natively do it via SNMP natively in Windows. You should be able to do it via WMI, but I don't remember if IPMonitor supports that or not. I would think it does, but it's been years since I've used it.

If you want to use SNMP to gather this information, I highly recommend SNMP-Informant Standard. This extension for SNMP will publish most of the WMI counters as SNMP OIDs which can then be read by IPMonitor.

I also highly recommend getting getif to help walk the OID tree so you can see exactly which OIDs map to which drives.
