Disk Space Report

  • Thanks for posting this, I used to have something very similar that has one more for loop to read servers from a text file. Here is my stab at it the powershell way:

    #drspacev2.ps1

    #Iterate a list of servers (src:a text file in d:\ps_scripts\servers.txt) through the WMI interface in windows.

    #Collect a list of stats on all local drives for each server and store data

    #in a csv file pipe"|" delimited at c:\temp\freespace.csv

    New-Item c:\temp\Freespace.csv -type file -force | out-null;

    $srvr = Get-Content C:\Temp\Servers.txt; foreach($row in $srvr) {

    Get-WMIObject Win32_LogicalDisk -filter "DriveType=3" -computer $row| Select SystemName,DeviceID,VolumeName,size,freespace | foreach{$_.DeviceID}{$row+"|"+$_.DeviceID+"|"+$_.size/1mb+"|"+$_.freespace/1mb+"|FileSpace"|add-content c:\temp\Freespace.csv}}

    This will iterate a text file named "Servers.txt" and grab all the freespace for "FIXED" drives, for each server in the text file. I even took this another step further creating a FormatFile, importing the data, and creating a conditionalized "Freespace" report in SSRS. (Conditionalized meaning the cells are colored red, lt. yellow, and blue depending on the amount of free space.) If anyone is interested I can write this up. Thanks again for your script aditya!

  • Can the .vbs script query/display the drive letter instead of the drive name? Currently it's only displaying the drive name (optional in windows) which for most of our drives is null. thnx.

    lc

  • Your Script Looks much more formatted!

    Thanks again for clicking my first article!

  • It can display the drive letter...

    Chk this out for the Win32_Volume WMI Event

  • There is also a very good utility to know what properties can be pulled. Check out the WMI browser from MS.

  • I have a similar vbscript to the one RJ provided that pulls a list of servers from a tbl I maintain on our sql boxes to track os and sql updates, ram, etc. The script loops through each server and returns the space infromation and loads it to a second tbl in the db with the server id so the space tbl can be joined to the server tbl. The script worked really well but my DBA has since become a powershell fanatic and replaced it.

    Loop

    Set oServerList = Nothing

    ' write the error log to teh file.

    SET objFSO = createobject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

    SET objTextFile = objFSO.CreateTextFile(strTextFilePath)

    objTextFile.Write(txt)

    wscript.quit

  • Thanks for the script.
