another method would be runningthe command line tool STSADM ENUMSITES (which is found here in MOSS07: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\12\BIN\ by default): STSADM.exe -o enumsites -urlhtt:// YOURSITENAMEHERE > SiteList.txt The results of the ENUMSITES in the SiteList.txt file will look like this: <Site Url="http://YOURSITENAME/sites/SUBSITENAME" Owner="Domain\JohnDoe" SecondaryOwner="Domain\JaneDoe" ContentDatabase="SQLDB_cdb3" StorageUsedMB="4.1" StorageWarningMB="0" StorageMaxMB="0" /> Notvery granular but quick and easy.

Is there a way to get subsite storage information along with the site collection?

I believe if you run the same command specifying the subsite URL or go to site settings etc..You should be able to get what u want

Thanks PatrickI ran the same command with a subsite specified as the URL. However the result i get is only at each site collection level. Even the site settings --> Storage space allocation only gives information on the storage used at the site collection not at individual subsite site level. We do have a capability to get storage space at doc library/document/list level but not anything which groups the space at the subsite levelNot sure why this is not provided.

The reasons stsadm enumsites only provides details on site collections, is that it is using the term "site" in the legacy sense... back in the first version of SharePoint (STS) "site" meant the top level site, and "web" was a subsite... in subsequent versions the term "site collection" came into use, and a web became a site. It can be confusing! But often where you see "site" it means site collection, and where you see "web" it means site. This is true of all STSADM commands and most/all of the object model I think.
