Simple script inspired by this blog post.
This script will read a servers.txt file located in the same directory as the script, check each server listed (one per line, use the servers FQDN) for mount points, see how much free space is available, compare it to a minimum amount you set and then e-mail an alert if below the minimum amount.
Should work on Windows Server 2008 and newer. Might work on Server 2003 but I haven’t tested it.
