Dear All, We are having environment of more then 200 Production Servers which are Critical hence we need to Monitor and Report the Disk Space through SCRIPT using PowerShell or VB. If any body has already been done , Kindly share it. Thanks & Regards, Amit Satam

from http://www.youdidwhatwithtsql.com/check-disk-space-with-powershell-2/195 # Issue warning if % free disk space is less $percentWarning = 15; # Get server list $servers = Get-Content "$Env:USERPROFILE\serverlist.txt"; $datetime = Get-Date -Format "yyyyMMddHHmmss"; # Add headers to log file Add-Content "$Env:USERPROFILE\server disks $datetime.txt" "server,deviceID,size,freespace,percentFree"; foreach($server in $servers) { # Get fixed drive info $disks = Get-WmiObject -ComputerName $server -Class Win32_LogicalDisk -Filter "DriveType = 3"; foreach($disk in $disks) { $deviceID = $disk.DeviceID; [float]$size = $disk.Size; [float]$freespace = $disk.FreeSpace; $percentFree = [Math]::Round(($freespace / $size) * 100, 2); $sizeGB = [Math]::Round($size / 1073741824, 2); $freeSpaceGB = [Math]::Round($freespace / 1073741824, 2); $colour = "Green"; if($percentFree -lt $percentWarning) { $colour = "Red"; } Write-Host -ForegroundColor $colour "$server $deviceID percentage free space = $percentFree"; Add-Content "$Env:USERPROFILE\server disks $datetime.txt" "$server,$deviceID,$sizeGB,$freeSpaceGB,$percentFree"; } } Some basic info is there http://www.computerperformance.co.uk/powershell/powershell_wmi_disk.htm

Have a look at this also. It gives a pretty graphical display. #requires -version 2.0 #use parameter drive report to html.ps1 computer1,computer2 or a computer list file #change file path and name on line 7 below to reflect name and path of computer list file using. #script will open web browser with current report when completed.

Dear Gandalf, If I want to Test the above Script in one of the Machine , Do I need to simply execute the the PS Script or any alteration are required in it. Thanks & Regards, Amit Satam

to run it against one machine type c:\script_path\'hard drive report to html.ps1' computer1 or use a list of computers in a text file with each computer name on a separate line. use change line 7 $computers = (Get-Content "C:\Scripts\Computers.txt") to point to your computer list name and path the results will open in your default browser Regards, ~P MCSE, MCITP, MCTS, MCP, CCNA
