For example, to create ten dummy files c:\temp\file* with the size of 1GiB :
|
1 |
0..9 | foreach {fsutil file createnew "c:\temp\file$_" 1073741824} |
This script will check a disk’s free space and send a warning if the server has dropped below the limit you have specified.
The settings are in a XML file. The main entity is the filesystem – let’s say a drive letter or disk. Each disk must be defined as an element, which includes values such as the hostname, limit, and list of recipents.
Both files for this solution must be in the same folder.
