Low disk space alert email using Task Scheduler.



This Post will help you out to keep track of Disk Space and send an email once free space is less than 10%

so lets get started :)

Follow below steps to achieve the requirement.



  • Open Task Scheduler and create a new task.
  • Enter a name for the task, select "Run whether user is logged on or not", and check "Do not store password."
  • Add a new trigger on the Triggers tab.
  • Select "On an event" in the "Begin the task" box.
  • Set Log to "System", Source to "srv", and Event ID to "2013".




  • Add a new action on the Actions tab.
  • Set Action to "Send an e-mail" and fill in the rest of the settings appropriately.
     


  • To configure when the low disk space event is recorded in the System Log, open the Registry Editor, navigate to HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters and add a DWORD value named “DiskSpaceThreshold”, setting it to the desired percentage. When the entry does not exist, the default value is 10.
     

Happy SharePointing :)
