We are currently evaluating Zenoss as a possible replacement for our existing 
network monitoring.  One of our current issues is how-to monitor disk space on 
Microsoft Windows Cluster Service disks.  If we use SNMP the monitoring will 
work fine until you fail over the node.  At this point the disk becomes 
unavailable on the primary node and now shows up on the backup node.  We had 
tried doing to some testing with a specific SNMP poll on the cluster address, 
but that seemed to be non-reliable.

We have used the NC_Net agent and Nagios to get around this behavior by being 
able to setup the cluster as a separate node and poll the agent for the cluster 
disks.  Since the agent is on both nodes we never have the issues with the 
disks being on the "wrong" node.

Has anyone had any success in monitoring disks in Windows Clusters via Zenoss?
