DiskSavvy Ultimate provides the ability to analyze disk space usage reports from multiple servers or desktop computers and display charts showing the amount of used disk space and the number of files per user.

Important: By default, processing and display of user names is disabled. In order to be able to see user names, open the options dialog, select the 'General' tab and enable this option.

In order to analyze disk space usage per user, connect DiskSavvy Ultimate to an SQL Database and submit disk space usage reports containing files owned by multiple users to the SQL database using the DiskSavvy GUI application or the DiskSavvy command line utility. Once reports are in the database, open the 'Database' dialog and press the 'Users' button to open the 'Users Statistics' dialog.

disksavvy -analyze -dir \\server\share -host <Host Name> -save_to_database

The simplest way to submit reports from multiple servers or desktop computers is to use the DiskSavvy command line utility to analyze all the required hosts through the network. In order to simplify submission of reports to the SQL database, the command line utility may be executed on the same host where the SQL database is installed on. In this case, the user needs to specify one or more network shares to be processed and the host name to be set for each report.

disksavvy -analyze -dir <Local Directory> -save_report <File Name>

Another option is to execute the command line utility on each specific host, save disk space analysis reports and later submit report files from all hosts to the SQL database using the DiskSavvy GUI application. In this case, there is no need to set the host name, which will be set automatically to the name of the host the command line utility is executed on.
