Used Disk Space Report

[Guest]

I need to create a report that exhibits server name, ip address, total physical disk space and total physical used disk space. What approach would be be best in order to accomplish this?

You can get everything except IP by selecting your computers in the right window, then right-clicking and choosing Drive Space. You'll have to get IP separately and add it either Excel or Access.

What about taking into account Unallocated (Unformatted) disk space on a physical drive?

You might be able to get more disk space information from Hyena's WMI functions; there are a lot of WMI classes involving disk space. Hyena's drive space functions are limited to what Windows returns, which is just what you see now.

How do I create an WMI query for the Win32_DiskDrive class?

There are a couple of ways, but here is one:
(You need to have the Enterprise Edition or evaluation version for this to work)

Expand any computer, then right click on the main WMI object, select Execute Query...

Then, click New and provide a name of the query and the class name. Since you know the class name, just type it in. After clicking OK, add the fields that you want. The other defaults should be fine. You can then run this query on any computer, or multiple computers through the right window.
