Figured I would chime in.. WE use a product called NTP software. It does a great job of doing profiles, blocking file types, etc. It came with a product called storage M & A. It would show dupliate files, age, MP3, what ever. Its not cheap, but would get you what you are looking for. It runs via fpolicy.. Again, I can go into some detail if you would like to take this offline. You can also look at this.. I have not ran it against the filers, but you can try..

We have several large CIFS shares managed by internal departments. I'd like to be able to get reports based on which directories contain the most data / files (inodes) and also which files aren't being accessed very frequently and as such are candidates for archival / deletion.
We've historically used CommVault's SRM for the latter, but the Backup team is telling me it won't work on CIFS shares as it needs an agent.
Essentially looking for something like JdiskReport plus file access reporting.
Could probably run tools direct from OS's accessing the shares (and that may be the right thing to do). Am wondering what all of you use out there?
