Find Tablespace
Posted by: Chris Hane

I am trying to write a simple background monitoring tool (or find one if it exists) that can find the amount of tablespace left in the InnoDB tablespace. The only way I can see to do this is to issue a SQL like:
show table status like 'tablename'.

and then parse the comment column of the result set to find the free space.

Is there an easier / better / more error resistent method of find the remaining tablespace?

I've found lots of GUI monitoring tools, but I need one (or write one) that can run on a headless server and email admins when the free tablespace passes a defined threshold.

I'm asking here because I use Java. If there is a better place to ask (even if I need to use another language like C, let me know).

Thanks in advance,
Chris....
