Hey Toasterz;
Are there any free software tools which might run on a filer's server host (whether Linux or Windoze) for managing content on a filer? I'm looking for something I can run, preferably as a cron job or a scheduled job. I'm envisioning something that will let me configure a "control file" list of names of files to look for on the filer, then the program would walk the shares and exports and tell me how much space is being taken up on the filer by each file type. Even just a perl script would be great.
I do have a windows app called Treesize Pro (which is not free) I use to get a snapshot of occupancy of various CIFS shares. It's useful and is the best thing I've got at the moment. But I'd like to have something I could script to send out a report summary providing both the overall occupancy of a volume plus a breakdown of what's in the volume.
