Extracting File Analytics export folder size

To extract the first-level folder size information from the File Analytics database:

  • At the Linux command prompt, run the following command:

     java -classpath /opt/aptare/portal/WEB-INF/lib/*:/opt/aptare/portal/WEB-INF/classes/ -DAPTARE_HOME="<ita-install-path>/aptare" com.aptare.sc.service.fa.FaSubDirectoryReport

    where the value of APTARE_HOME property is the absolute path of the aptare directory.

    For example:

     java -classpath /opt/aptare/portal/WEB-INF/lib/*:/opt/aptare/portal/WEB-INF/classes/ -DAPTARE_HOME="/opt/aptare" com.aptare.sc.service.fa.FaSubDirectoryReport

    This generates an output file: report.csv

    Output format:

    Server Name, Volume Name, Folder name, Size in MB, Last Modified

    Where:

    • Folder name: The root-level folders in the volume

    • Size in MB: Sum of all the file sizes in the folder (recursively)

    • Last Modified: Maximum modified time stamp from within all the files in the folder (recursively)
