    Dear Friends,

    I want redirect the output of xp_fixeddrives to xp_cmdshell so that i can net send the space available in my server to all my team members.

    Thanks & Regards

    Insert results from xp_Fixeddrives into a temp table as such:

    CREATE TABLE #DriveTable (Drive CHAR(1), [MB Free] int)

    INSERT INTO #DriveTable

    EXEC master..xp_fixeddrives

    SELECT *

    FROM #DriveTable

    DROP TABLE #DriveTable

     

    Now, use t-sql to query the temp table and build the message string that you will pass into the net send command in xp_cmdshell.
