Description Aleksey Nogin 2001-10-12 20:44:55 UTC 
The value of defaultCutoff is never used (it should be).

The diskcheck.conf still has the perl syntax in the examples of setting
the cutoff values.

Lots of redundancies:
 - For some reason the code calls "df" and "df -h" while the "df -h"
   already has all the necessary information.
 - In the
      if (test or ...): ... elseif (test or ...): ...
   construction the second "test or" is unneeded.
 - tempfile is defined and never used.
Comment 1 Aleksey Nogin 2001-10-12 20:59:26 UTC 
Also, "-x none" should be added to exclude in diskcheck.conf to exclude "bind"
mounts and "-x tmpfs" to exclude the /dev/shm mount.
Comment 2 Aleksey Nogin 2001-10-12 21:33:12 UTC 
And finally, the pct is never converted from a string to a number, so all
comparisons return random results!
