the implementation is platform specific and is implemented inside the libmetrics library generally as part of a function called part_max_used_func, and in some platforms applies extra filters to include or exclude some mount points. for linux the file libmetrics/linux/metrics.c and the find_disk_space function implement this metric, and filter out any volumes that are mounted read only or that are considered to be remote.
