Hi, all

Does vb.net has something can check the disk space and if less than
500 MB it will trigger an event?

Or I have to write a time to read disk space every "X" minutes?

Thanks.

Greg
 
What are you trying to do ?

The perfmon tool alllows to check various counters and launch a particular
task when it reaches the alert value...
 
I need to monitor hard drives if free space is lower than a threshold
than send out an email to notifiy someone to clean up the drive.

It is better to write a service application to do this. Also this is a
w2k environment. So not sure I can use perfmon?

Thanks.

yeah but perfmon has since been renamed system monitor.. but the
perfmon executable name still works

how is _THAT_ for a marketing problem?
