I am looking to break out alerts for logical disks. I need to alert the system administrators when the C drive goes below a secified threshold and an application owner when the non-system drives go below a specified threshold. I am not sure how do set up the monitors and the subscriptions to accomplish this. Please advise. Thanks Paul

Hi. You could create a group of logical disks where device name matches regex C|c, and then use this group in a subscription for the sys admins. Create a second group of logical disks where device name does not match regex C|c, and use this group in another subscription for app owners. Kevin Holman has a good article on creating logical disk groups. http://blogs.technet.com/b/kevinholman/archive/2009/11/05/making-groups-of-logical-disks-and-example-from-simple-to-advanced.aspxLayne

I had this exact same question/problem. Kevin Holman has a blog posting about it that involves hacking XML in a management pack (be brave!) http://blogs.technet.com/b/kevinholman/archive/2010/09/09/how-to-create-a-group-of-objects-that-are-contained-by-some-other-group.aspx"Fear disturbs your concentration"
