Unix process & file system & disk space monitoring

["Chestnut, Ronald P." <ronc@SLAC.Stanford.EDU>]

We need to know when various resources are not available, so that RF structure processing can be paused. The point of the processing is to measure fault data, so processing is at best useless when data cannot be stored.

Some unix process which sets EPICS PVs to values reflecting resource status would be ideal. Does anyone have such a process or script or something else which provides this capability?

Thanks in advance.
