If the OS reports this wrong how should we then report it correctly? If you would create a share on c:\newspace would that show the 40 gig free (OS level)? If so then I think that SA should also show it. Never tried it to be honest....

In this case the OS reports it wrong also. I.e. if I have C:\ and it has 1 gig free, and I add physical drive to the computer (say 40gig) and mount it to C:\newspace, a DIR C:\ will still only show 1 gig free, but a dir of C:\newspace will show 40 gig free. (at least if done from the OS level.) It's annoying, to say the least. >Dirk. > >-----Original Message----- >From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf >Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] >Sent: Wednesday, February 16, 2005 5:33 AM >To: [email protected] >Subject: RE: [SA-list] Major product checks missing? > >Being able to disk free using volume mount points in Windows 2003 > >E.G. when you mount a volume as a folder being able to get the free disk >space that is for that volume rather than the host drive. > >Add a spare hard disk to a computer and mount the volume to a folder >rather than a drive letter and then try to get the free disk space for >that folder only.
