Information about disc space used by different spaces
Asked by Christoph Hirzberger:

Hi!  

I need to know how much disc space is used by each Confluence space.  

Is there any functionality or plugin I can use?  

greets  

Chris

body: If you're primarily concered with attachment size, you can loop over all the pages in a space and get the attachment size for them. Similarly, you can get a page count. With some simple extrapolation, you could make a reasonable guess at how much "disk space" each space is using.

Here's the macro I use, which is based on one by Andrew Frayling:

```
## Macro title: Space Meta Data 2## Macro has a body: Y or N (N)## Body processing: Selected body processing option## Output: Selected output option#### Developed by: Matthew Horn, based on Space Meta Data by Andrew Frayling## Date created: 06/07/2012## Installed by: &lt;your name&gt;## Macro to display information such as number of pages, number of blog posts, attachment size, etc. about a named Space. ## @param TargetSpace:title=Target space|type=string|desc=Enter the KEY of the space you want metadata for.

body: As all content of the spaces is stored in the database, there is not an easy answer for this quesition as the information for all spaces is stored in the same tables.

If you are storing attachments in your filesystem, you can check all attachments for an space in the folder named as teh space id. You can find more information on the attachments file structure in [Hierarchical File System Attachment Storage](https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/DOC/Hierarchical+File+System+Attachment+Storage).
