SQL Server数据库的管理员常常会头疼硬盘可用空间太少，往往需要编写很多查询来查明哪些表和模式占用了大量的硬盘空间，以便能够定期清理这些表和模式。本文将为大家阐述如何查询系统目录来确定磁盘空间的使用情况，可以帮助SQL Server数据库管理员识别占用最大空间的表和模式，以便将老旧的数据归档，将不需要的数据清除。本文所列脚本适用于SQL Server 2005和SQL Server 2008 CTP5。

　　步骤1：如图一所示，登录到SQL Server实例。

　　步骤2：确定你想要获得空间使用信息的数据库，导航到该数据库，如下所示(见图二)

　　Use AdventureWorks

　　go

　　步骤3.1：将下面的代码添加到查询窗口，并执行(见图三)。
　　begin try
SELECT
 (row_number() over(order by a3.name, a2.name))%2 as l1,
 a3.name AS [schemaname],
 a2.name AS [tablename],

 (a1.reserved + ISNULL(a4.reserved,0))* 8 AS reserved,
 a1.data * 8 AS data,
 (CASE WHEN (a1.used + ISNULL(a4.used,0)) > a1.data THEN
   (a1.used + ISNULL(a4.used,0)) - a1.data ELSE 0 END) * 8 AS index_size,
 (CASE WHEN (a1.reserved + ISNULL(a4.reserved,0)) > a1.used THEN
   (a1.reserved + ISNULL(a4.reserved,0)) - a1.used ELSE 0 END) * 8 AS unused
