Recently, I need a script which can provide me detail (Driver Letter, Drive Label, Free Space, Used Space etc) of all installed hard drives. I found following script by G. Rayburn very helpful.
Valid for versions: SQL Server 2005 and above

Expected Result:
Note: Before executing script, don't forget to enable Ole Automation Procedures from Surface Area Configuration or using sp_configure.

Hi, thanks a lot for the script, I find it very useful for my daily status reports. I did however noticed that it is slightly buggy when you run it on a Cluster (sql 2008).
ReplyDeleteThe bug is:
the script doesn't return the correct value for the Label of the shared storage drives. It just repeats the last good value.
I tried debugging but couldn't quite get it to work.
Any ideas?
Thanks a lot!
