As a DBA I often need to watch SQL server disk space. I got alerts then I request more from network engineer. Sometimes the manager ask me to give a report of database growth
like the increase rate by month of last 6 months.
Like the drive we have
E:\MSSQL\Data
F:\MSSQL\Log
G:\DBBackup
I know I can do something like to query backupset table to find out backup file growth.
and can query sys.masterfiles and then save into a table , collect by each month.
I don't have a script or process of doing this yet,
But would like to know from other admin, what is your method of doing this? The simpler the better.
Basically I want to give them a history of size growth in above 3 directories?
Any tool, or script?
thanks
