Getting data file space usage

Posted on 2. February 2009 by admin

Here is a simple query to get space usage by data file:

 SELECT 
   a.FILEID, 
   [FILE_SIZE_MB] = CONVERT(decimal(12,2),ROUND(a.size/128.000,2)), 
   [SPACE_USED_MB] = CONVERT(decimal(12,2),ROUND(FILEPROPERTY(a.name,'SpaceUsed')/128.000,2)), 
   [FREE_SPACE_MB] = CONVERT(decimal(12,2),ROUND((a.size–FILEPROPERTY(a.name,'SpaceUsed'))/128.000,2)) , 
   NAME = LEFT(a.NAME,24), 
   FILENAME = LEFT(a.FILENAME,55) 
   FROM dbo.sysfiles a
