Disk Space issue

  • Hi all,

    I faced one of the production server issue.

    Here is the issue:

    The disk D on computer USDC8273SQL2B.kih.kmart.com is running out of disk space. The values that exceeded the threshold are 3% free space and 1331 free Mbytes.

    But i checked the D drive , it has a lot of space

    urgent help

  • 1-Open the SSMS(Sql Server Management Studio)

    2-Right click on the desire database and then click properties

    3-In the General TAB on the left side pane then check the Size and Space Available values on the right pane of window

    what is it ?

    If Space Available value is big one then you dont need to worry because new pages will be create in the current Space Available shown in this window,if this value is small then you have to wory

    where did you get this message out of disk space ?
