| Run the following query to find out the database files size in MB. Create a maintenance plan as per your threshold (if the difference is less than 10%, set up an alarm).SELECT @@SERVERNAME as ServerName, DB_NAME([database_id])AS [DBName],name, physical_name, type_desc, CONVERT( bigint, size/128.0) [SizeinMB],Convert( bigint, max_size/128.0) [MaxSize],Convert( bigint, Growth/128.0) [Growth],(Convert( bigint, max_size/128.0) -Convert( bigint, size/128.0) ) DifferenceFROM sys.master_filesWhere DB_NAME([database_id]) NOT IN ('master','tempdb','model','msdb','ReportServer','ReportServerTempDB') |
