We Got Served

Nick from Asoft (developers of the excellent AutoExit add-in) continues his Windows Home Server development guide series with a look at undocumented classes in the platform. This time around, Nick details the QSMMgr class, located in HomeServerControls.dll.

This class is handy for retrieving all kinds of info about storage (Storage Manager).

The following functions are explained:
long GetAppFoldersSize()
long GetBackupSize()
Disk[] GetDisks()
string GetGlobalStatus()
long GetOperatingSystemSize()
void GetSharedFoldersSize(out long size, out long dupSize)
long GetStorageFreeSpace()
long GetStorageSize()
long GetStorageUsedSpace()
ShareConnection[] GetShareConnections()

If you’re a home server developer, Asoft’s blog is definitely one to bookmark.
