Re: Change Simplivity physical disk capacity warning limit

we are using a powershell script which is scheduled once a month writing zeros to free disk space with sdelete.exe while leaving 1% of the free space untouched. With this method we can safely run it every time and it helps us keeping the storage clean. We also use windows disk cleanup after every windows patching, and running the zeroing task after that. And sometimes we do windows defrag to the drives which re-arranges the files and frees up additional space after zeroing out.
