        @dafyre It's a remote desktop server. I have one user on it now. I'm going to bounce it in a little bit when they are finished.

          Users could be doing nearly anything in that case.

            Temporary Database Tables... or user causing issues... You can guess which one I'd pick as the problem.

              @scottalanmiller I would agree, except I don't think anyone was on at 3:00 AM, and there is only one user on now, and that is another Admin.

                You can track RD sessions for that in Zabbix. You have to nab them with perf_counter.

                  The thing is, I'm on the server and I can see free space and it's not changing. The Zabbix graph thinks it is though. I'll launch perfmon to see if it's changing faster than I can see it.

                    Perfmon shows it steady with 37% free. So it must be Zabbix.0_1489677125149_perfmon.png

                        Even after a reboot, Zabbix is still seeing the same thing. It's not kicking out emails, which is also odd.

                          What version of Zabbix Server & Agent?

                          Also, what is the Zabbix key (Configuration -> Hosts -> Host -> Items) it is looking at?

                            @dafyre It looks like: Triggers 1 vfs.fs.size[C:,pfree]

                                @dafyre It's Zabbix Server 3.2
                                Zabbix Agent Version 3.2.0.62444

                                Windows Server 2012 R2 patched up to date. It has the RDS role and RDS gateway role installed on it.

                                  From your Zabbix server...

                                  try to run this command a few times and see if it returns everything like it should:

                                  zabbix_get -s ipofyourhost -k "vfs.fs.size[C:,pfree]"
                                  

                                  Run it a few times back-to-back and see what you get... and then compare with the results of...

                                  zabbix_get -s ipofyourhost -k "vfs.fs.size[C:,free]"

                                    @Mike-Davis what about Windows Updates? That will do those huge chnages of space.

                                      I did:
                                      sudo find -name "zabbix_get"
                                      and it returned nothing.
