User-Defined Analysis and File Management Commands

DiskBoss is a powerful and flexible product providing a large number of features, capabilities and configuration options allowing one to perform many types of different disk space analysis and file management operations. In order to simplify management and execution of frequently used operations, DiskBoss provides the user with the ability to add user-defined disk space analysis and file management commands pre-configured for user-specific hardware and storage configurations.

All types of disk analysis and file management operations such as disk space analysis, file classification, duplicate files detection, file organizing, file search, file synchronization, copy, move, delete and disk change monitoring may be saved as user-defined commands, pre-configured for user-specific needs and custom hardware configurations and executed in a single click using the main GUI application or the DiskBoss command line utility.

The user is provided with the ability to create direct desktop shortcuts for user-defined file management commands and execute any command directly from the Windows desktop without starting the DiskBoss main GUI application.

One of the most powerful capabilities of the DiskBoss file management toolkit is the integration of different types of user-defined disk space analysis and file management commands, which provides the user with the ability to combine multiple operations in order to fully automate frequently performed and time consuming operations. For example, a disk space analysis operation configured to detect large amounts of old, unused files may automatically trigger a rule-based file management operation, which will archive, move or delete these specific files.

Moreover, DiskBoss allows one to design user-defined disk analysis and file management commands using an open and easy-to-use XML-Based format, which may be imported into the DiskBoss GUI application or executed by the command line utility. Pre-configured and tested disk analysis and file management commands may be easily and safely executed on multiple servers and desktop computers minimizing risks or potential operator-related errors.

All types of DiskBoss' disk analysis and file management commands may be designed using the XML-based format and executed by the DiskBoss command line utility. The XML format provides full control over all types of disk analysis and file management operations and covers all available parameters from input disks and directories to automatic reports generation capabilities and performance tuning options. In conjunction with the XML-Based format, the DiskBoss command line utility may be used to integrate DiskBoss disk usage analysis and file management capabilities into other products and solutions.
