Report Not Showing Free Disk Data SCCM 2012!!!

There was requirement from wintel team for Disk space check on few servers on which they were suspecting disk space issue, So I started my work to get the report using   Hardware 01A – Summary of computers in a specific collection report. And when the result came in I was shock to see that free space date was not there. So after flipping some page in sccm book it gave me the clue.

The Clue was free disk space data is not collected in System Center 2012 Configuration Manager (CM12) by default, so in order to collect this information you will need to enable the attribute within the logical disk (SMS_LogicalDisk) class.


Below are the steps to enable the collection of free disk space data.



Open the CM12 console. Select the Administration node and then Client Settings. In the results pane right-click Default Client Settings and click Properties.


Select Hardware Inventory and then click on Set Classes…


Locate Logical Disk and select Free Space (MB) then click OK until you return to the CM12 console.
Now we have to wait till next hardware inventory cycle, all of your clients will start reporting free disk space data back to CM12. Once the hardware inventory cycle is complete.

 Hope This Will Help!!
