Hi,
I would like to store the database growth (Data file size + Index Siie) into a table and send an email?
Could you please guide me how can i handle this for my all database?
I would like to create table like:

Server name, Database, IndexSize, DatafileSize, Total Size, CollectionTime.
So each time I have DB Size with Data and Index.
Which one is the best method to use IndexSize, DatafileSize or Backup size?

I am planning to create DBTrack DB and i will create Table with above columns but need to know how can i handle whole proces

Thanks,

srimami

sp_spaceused gives the details of all the fields you were asking.

We have a SQL job that runs at regular intervals, gets the current usage numbers, logs them to a table (separate DBA database) and sends an email to the appropriate people if certain limits are exceeded.

if using sp_spaceused , use the @updateusage parameter, for updated information
