Has a server tool to check for space before it goes critical?

Asked By marsh drake 30 points N/A Posted on - 01/31/2013

 

My first of being System Admin, and as I’ve noticed our server is close to being critical. As we all know that disk space is important to a server in order to be healthy. And nobody wants to run out of space. Before it got worse, does anyone knows a server tool to check for space?

Can anyone please help me?

Hi Marsh,

 

So far, I’ve been using WINDIRSTAT to monitor disk space. It is a freeware which can be downloaded here. Once you open it, it will read and then report to you the discs you want to analyze. It is very helpful because you can also view the folders of the drive and so you’ll know which folder is consuming great space on the drive. And best is it identifies the files which consumes greater space also on the drive. Try the software and hope it will help you.
