Running Windows Core: How-to find volume size & free space
Running Windows Core Series, what happens when you have no GUI?
When running these commands or using them in scripts keep in mind that some may become deprecated in future versions of Windows. Best practice is to use the PowerShell commands when possible to future proof any script that use these commands. These commands were run on Windows Server 2012R2.
When running Windows Server 2012+ without a GUI note that the GUI can be reinstalled via PowerShell (Install-WindowsFeature) and a reboot.
From Windows Server core command prompt:
C:>DISKPART
LIST VOL
SELECT VOL 2
DETAIL VOL
Or
C:>WMIC VOLUME LIST STATUS
Or
C:>POWERSHELL
PS C:>Get-Volume
