aspx thread: Get Disk Space


Message #1 by "Paul Gleeson" <paul.gleeson@h...> on Wed, 16 Jan 2002 13:22:39
Hi

My name is Paul,

I am a senior systems support engineer and I have purchased the book 

beginning ASP.NET/VB.NET in order to complete a task delegated to me. The 

task is to write a web-based tool to check the hard drive free space, used 

space and percentage free on all of the primary SQL servers on our 

network. But as time is an issue and I am very much a beginner I need some 

help. I have been two days looking on Internet sites and books for some 

idea on how to achieve this and to my surprise I could only find finished 

products.    

Please could you give me a clue of the code to achieve this, as I cannot 

find any reference material to use?

Paul,

I am currently using this code in asp.

Not sure if this will work in .Net but it gives me the

available space. You may have to fine tune the code to

your needs.



'Function ShowAvailableSpace(drvPath)

'Dim fso, d, s

'Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")

'Set d = fso.GetDrive(fso.GetDriveName(drvPath))

'ShowAvailableSpace = FormatNumber(d.AvailableSpace,

0) 

'End Function
