I need to provide some SAS admin tools to non-SAS admins for a very basic Windows2019 server with about 25 occasional EG users. Due to shared disk, Environment Manager is not reliable and does not integrate with the IT team. cleanwork.exe is scheduled but sometimes a lot of users need a lot of space at the same time.

 

This powershell script can be supported by IT operations and the output is sufficient for basic capacity planning but it needs some tweaking. Hopefully, I am not missing something obvious:

 

# Write owner and aggregate SASwork usage to csv
# D:\sas\Batch\scripts\SASWorkDirUse2csv.ps1
# Nearly there but array($owner) values are weird
<#
tree /A D:\SASWork
Folder PATH listing for volume Data
Volume serial number is EE9D-7C3D

I am testing using an account that is a member of the Administrators group but I have noticed that get-acl can be erratic if not run as Administrator. Still testing that aspect. The original script came from DirUse Directory size - PowerShell - SS64.com

An excellent resource for powershell amateurs
