% Free Space for Linux and Windows servers

In the workbook published yesterday we used one graph for %Used Space from Linux servers, and one graph for %Free Space from Windows servers. But for some scenarios you might want to show disk space from both server types in the same graph. The following query convert Linux %Used Space to %Free Space, so they can be visualized together with %Free Space with data from Windows servers.

Perf
| where TimeGenerated between (ago(1d) .. now() )
| where CounterName == "% Used Space" or CounterName == "% Free Space"
| where InstanceName != "_Total"
| where InstanceName !contains "HarddiskVolume"
| extend FreeSpace = iff(CounterName == "% Used Space", 100-CounterValue, CounterValue)
| extend localTimestamp = TimeGenerated + 2h
| extend description = strcat(Computer, "  ", InstanceName)
| summarize avg(FreeSpace) by bin(localTimestamp, 10m), description
| sort by localTimestamp desc
| render timechart 

Thanks to Vanessa for good conversation and ideas 🙂
