There is currently no way to change the directories which are checked by this alert. The alert is mostly concerned with the free space where stack components are installed (either /usr/hdp or /usr/lib).
You can easily create another alert script to check a different directory if desired.

I am as well facing same issue where Ambari alerts with the disk usage alert. However, I would want to understand on the process much before the alerting process i.e. the allocation of disk space itself. Suppose I had 2 volumes mounted /dev/sda1 which is 50GB and /dev/sda2 which is 1TB. Now when I install HDP with these two volumes, HDFS space is correctly allocated i.e. /dev/sda2 is given for HDFS. However, I believe /dev/sda1 is used by Ambari for its internal storage. As in my case /dev/sda1 has other data as well, including OS, it is obviously less in disk space. Can anyone please let me know how to configure Ambari to use disk space of my choice rather than auto selecting the smaller partition?
