I need volume "label" which is not discovered by logical disk nor win32_logicaldisk contains that property, this value is only found on win32_volume WMI class.
The reason is that I need to find a method to dynamically populate groups for SQL dosk mount points that are set to not auto grow, these generate unnecessary low free disk space alerts. If there is a better way I'm all for it, I just can't think or know of one.
