This week, Darren Pritchard, our SharePoint guru, lays out clearly exactly what needs to be done in order to find out the size of all site collections for a Web application in SharePoint 2007.
The first step is to create a batch file containing:
SET STSADM=”c:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\12\bin\STSADM.EXE”
%STSADM% -o enumsites -url <Your Site> SiteStats.txt
Pause
Pretty obviously, where it says <Your Site>, you need to change that to the name of the Web application that you need to produce the statistics for.
Next you need to copy the batch file to your Web front-end server and run it.
The output will be in a file called SiteStats.txt. Open the file and for each site collection you will see ‘StorageUsedMB=’ and a value. It’s the value that you’re interested in.
On a completely different topic: on Tuesday 13 September the Virtual CICS user group meets. Rocket Software’s Charles Jones will be discussing “CICS TS 4.2: Leveraging event processing and high-performance Java”. More details about how to register can be found on the user group Web site at fundi.com/virtualcics.

I may have to interact with middleware, enterprise apps that may be in SAP or Seybold, and I may even have to go off to some legacy app that’s in COBOL.

New zEnterprise System model links apps on blades to data on the mainframe.
IBM is introducing a mainframe computer to its zEnterprise System lineup that costs 25% less than the previous model, but still offers high-speed connections between the mainframe’s data and an attached blade server hosting an application that needs that data. An industry analyst says the new mainframe serves a growing industry trend for IT vendors to better optimize system performance and offer more affordable IT that is accessible for a wider array of customers.
The IBM zEnterprise 114, announced Tuesday, is a follow-up to the zEnterprise 196 mainframe introduced in July 2010.

Sadly, as a title, it only works if you’re in the parts of the world where CICS is pronounced ‘kicks’ and where people play football (and getting the ball in the back of the net is very important!). But wherever you are, I want to talk about IBM’s transaction processing system whose full title is Customer Information Control System and which runs under z/OS and z/VSE.

Here are Darren’s instructions for installing a new SharePoint solution.
