You have a list of site collections in each of these Web applications, through an STSADM command:
This command is going to generate an XML file such as this one:
Code:
Site> Count="xxx">
...
<Site Url = "http://myWebApplication/sites/mySiteCollectionTrial1"
Owner = "DOMAIN \ UserLoginTrial1"
SecondaryOwner = "DOMAIN \ UserLoginTrial2"
ContentDatabase = "myDataBaseTrial01"
StorageUsedMB = "156.1"
StorageWarningMB = "0"
StorageMaxMB = "0" />
<Site Url = "http://myWebApplication/sites/mySiteCollectionTrial2"
Owner = "DOMAIN \ UserLoginTrial1"
ContentDatabase = "myDataBaseTrial02"
StorageUsedMB = "256.1"
StorageWarningMB = "900"
StorageMaxMB = "1000" />
...
</ Sites>
Once this file is generated, simply open it with Excel 2007 to view the data as a PivotTable. You can see the distribution database (if one has many) collections of sites in your Web Application. This allows you(with sizing) to define the largest collections of sites. Thus our example, we provide the first three site collections with volumes ranging from 3.5 GB to 1.5 GB.
