Where's the beef? Most of the code to utilize this outstanding monitoring system is not included! Please make source available. Thanks!

Some stored procedures were missed, like
EXEC msdb..sp_Monitor_Capture_DB_Space_Info
EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_Monitor_Email_Low_DB_FreeSpace 0.1
EXEC msdb..sp_MSSQL_Recovery_Info

| This article is a good read, but would be much more useful if the rest of the code was included.

Good morning Sree, I am sorry to hear you have had problems. Here are the points I check first. If the dates on the report are all '20201225' (December 25, 2020) then you are just reporting the 'separator' row. I put in this row just to create a break between databases. I figured I would never be using this system in 2020  - Do a TSQL select on the DASD table and just make sure there are rows in it other than the above separator rows. - We run the job that populates the DASD table once daily, between 04:00 and 04:59 on all servers. We found that reporting on all days of the week was too much detailed information for a general report, so we limited it to just report DASD rows created on Friday between 04:00 - 04:59. Possibly the issue in the 'insert into #DASDRpt' statement. The 'select' in this statement was designed to only select rows created on 1) Friday "datepart(dw,(convert(....)))) = 6" 2) created during hour '04' "substring(createDTM,9,2) = '04'" If you have not scheduled the job that creates DASD rows to run at least on Friday between 04:00 - 04:59 you will not return any rows. If the date, time selects are the issue, modify the report sql as you wish. Let me know if this information helps, if not we will look further!!

I found this an easier approach I run the following batch file at logon: cscript status.vbs
rem pause
The status.vbs is as below, you need admin access, the name of the computer and a drive mapped to same, and the drive letter of the drive you want to read the size of. This returns a web page with the drive size in mega bytes and alerts if less than 2 gigabytes (the threshold = 2000). I monitor several databases with this script and the web page shows at a glance potential trouble spots (just repeat the code for other dbs). ' Returns drive size results to an HTML file.
On Error Resume Next
' HTML coding
const H_HEAD = "<HTML><HEAD>"
const T_HEAD = "<TITLE>STATUS REPORT</TITLE></HEAD>"
const B_HEAD = "<BODY BACKGROUND=one.jpg><CENTER><H3>STATUS REPORT - - DATE: "
const H_CLOSE = "</CENTER></BODY></HTML>"
' HTML TABLE CODES
const S_TABLE = "<TABLE BORDER=4 CELLPADDING=3>"
const T_TABLE = "<TR><TH>FILE NAME</TH><TH>STATUS</TH></TR>"
const E_TABLE = "</TABLE><BR>"
' HTML SUCCESS OR FAILURE CODE
const F_SUCCESS = "<TD ALIGN=CENTER><FONT COLOR=GREEN>OK</FONT></TD></TR>"
const F_FAILED = "<TD ALIGN=CENTER BGCOLOR=WHITE><FONT COLOR=RED SIZE=+1><B>FAILED</B></FONT></TD></TR>"
' Conversion codes Bites to Megabytes and 2000 megabytes threshold
const CONVERSION_FACTOR = 1048576
const WARNING_THRESHOLD = 2000 strComputer = "."
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer)
Set colProcesses = objWMIService.ExecQuery _
("SELECT * FROM Win32_Process")
Set objFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set objNewFile = objFSO.CreateTextFile("statusSize.htm")
objNewFile.WriteLine H_HEAD
objNewFile.WriteLine T_HEAD
objNewFile.WriteLine B_HEAD & Now() & "</H3>"
objNewFile.WriteLine "<FONT COLOR=PURPLE><B>DATABASE SPACE ON DRIVE E:</B></FONT>"
objNewFile.WriteLine S_TABLE
Computer = "ComputerName"
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts://" & Computer)
Set objLogicalDisk = objWMIService.Get("Win32_LogicalDisk.DeviceID='e:'")
FreeMegaBytes = objLogicalDisk.FreeSpace / CONVERSION_FACTOR
If FreeMegaBytes < WARNING_THRESHOLD Then
objNewFile.WriteLine "<TR><TD BGCOLOR=WHITE><FONT COLOR=RED SIZE=+1><B>INADEQUATE</B></FONT></TD>"

Good morning rscarlson, Our space monitoring system was presented in the article for review and evaluation by fellow DBA's. Those that deemed it useful were free to install all or part of it at their sites. This system fits our institutions needs for space management. You have developed your own system for space management, we are glad it fulfills your sites needs.
