Report User Profiles Greater Than 500MBs

Not sure where the files tab is... but in Report Lib -> File Storage Analysis -> Click on Files and Folders, I do get a Storage Cleanup Summary. Also, in that same folder, click on File Summary, selected computer, selected C: drive and Run (waited) but it opened a File Summary that "Shows file summary information for the selected servers and volumes." So I believe the answer is YES!

Sorry, In the Configuration Manager, in the NTFS discovery, where you saw the collection settings, the (Files) tab.

(Also, this custom query does not use File Storage Analysis collection data)

Thanks Peter. Nothing on that tab is selected.

since you are collecting many computers in multiple domains, if you want to try things out, collect the folders and files on just one computer (create a new test discovery) then run the report to see if it gives you the expected results. if it does then I can add the additional column that you requested.

Peter... we are collecting a ton of data already! And to add all files to the discovery, I'm sure, will fill up SQL quick. Is there no other way to collect the information requested?

There really isn't any other way - the profile data is just a chunk of the file system so if you want to know how much space it's using, you have to gather the file system. Now theoretically, you could set up a separate discovery that grabs only those folders from each box - e.g. c:\users but it's still all going to go into the same SQL DB unless you choose to setup a dedicated one just for file system data. The hitch with this approach is that there currently is no convenient mechanism for "switching" between SQL DBs for reporting purposes.

Seems like this could be an enhancement to the File Storage Analysis collection, similar to the home drives option that exists now.

I see how to discover one server but how do I only pull files from c:\users?

Peter please close this request. We are not going to be able to turn on the features required for this Custom Report to run. I will make a feature request for this data to be collect or reported through File Storage Analysis collection. Thanks for all your help!!
