Question: from above query I am getting Spaceleft for XYZ database which has 4 data file (XYZ.mdf, XYZ1.ndf, XYZ2.ndf), XYZ3.ndf) I need only 1 output from XYZ database which has Max spaceleft on data file.

can you just sum the numbers up

select DatabaseName, sum(ActualSizeMB) as ActualSizeMB, sum(MaxRestrictedSizeMB) as MaxRestrictedSizeMB, sum(SpaceLeftMB) as SpaceLeftMB from ( SELECT [dbname] AS DatabaseName, [name] AS dbFileLogicalName, [filename] AS dbFilePhysicalFilePath, ROUND(size * CONVERT(FLOAT,8) / 1024,0) AS ActualSizeMB, ROUND(maxsize * CONVERT(FLOAT,8) / 1024,0) AS MaxRestrictedSizeMB, ROUND(maxsize * CONVERT(FLOAT,8) / 1024,0) - ROUND(size * CONVERT(FLOAT,8) / 1024,0) AS SpaceLeftMB FROM ##ALL_DB_Files WHERE maxsize > -1 -- skip db files that have no max size --AND ([maxsize] - ) * 1.0 < 0.01 * 10 * [maxsize] -- find db files within percentage ) v group by DatabaseName ORDER BY 4

You'll hate yourself in the morning when you run out of space after your report says you wouldn't. It's quite common for tables with multiple files to have one or more files grow at different rates and for one or more files to be set to different maximums. You really need to report by file.

Also, stop using sysfiles. It's been deprecated since 2005 (IIRC) and requires the use of sp_MSForEachDB, which is undocumented, has its own problems, and causes your code to be much more complicated that necessary. Do a search for sys.master_files and see the joy there.

Finally, stop killing yourself with trying to convert pages to MB the way you did. Just divide the number of pages by 128 or 128.0 and Bob's your uncle.

Here's an example of how short the code can be thanks to sys.master_files.
SELECT DatabaseName = DB_NAME(database_id) ,FileType = type_desc ,dbFileLogicalName = name ,dbFilePhysicalFilePath = physical_name ,ActualSizeMB = CONVERT(DECIMAL(9,1),size/128.0) ,MaxRestrictedSizeMB = max_size/128 ,SpaceLeftMB = (max_size-size)/128 ,PercentFree = CONVERT(DECIMAL(9,1),(max_size-size)*100.0/max_size) FROM sys.master_files WHERE max_size <> -1 --Skip DB files that are set to "Unrestricted File Growth" ORDER BY PercentFree ;
