low disk space alerts in server 2008

I have set these up before in Windows 2003 server, but cannot follow the same method in Server 2008.  How can I set up these alerts in SBS 2008 or Windows Server 2008?  I basically want to do what is described in KB324796, but on SBS 2008.

Hello,

This article may assist you.

It Checks each Logical Disk on the Server for Percent Free Space and logs the values for all drives to the DiskSpaceStats table for historical analysis.


Hope this helps

internetcreations : posted this question 2 times and the post that I responded to was closed by a mod.  So I just posted here as well.  make sense?
Either way, you didnt bother to read previous comments to avoid duplicate comments.
dstewartjr Actually I did

internetcreations: keep us updated!
 
I had previously set up a performance monitor to run a batch script that emailed me.  This console does not appear to do this.

What good does posting the same link do?? This isnt any new information for the author and all it does is clutter up the thread.


You could always use a 3rd Party solution if you can find what you are looking for in Storage Mgmt.
