Description

General Information: This patch adds functionality for StorageAnalyzer to list all inactive files

Detailed Description: This patch enables openit_filespace to list all inactive files (cold and
frozen file temperature). There is also a configuration update to filespace.xml: when this is set to
TRUE, it will log filename (with extension name), file path, file size (kb), date when it was last
accessed, file temperature in a CSV file.

Revision 2:
The clients where -in the old revision was installed crashes when accounting remote filesystems.
This is because of the compatibility issue of building the binary in Visual Studio 2005. This is now
working after building it using Visual Studio 2012.

Revision 3:
The produced csv file in the old revision has an error in the columns. This revision will fix it.

Patch 1295 — Storage Analyzer updates and bug fixes

* List all sub directories for frozen types

FileSpace can now log a list of directories that have frozen files. Temperature log can be
configured in filespace.xml

Set to true to activate temperature monitoring   "filespace.temperature-log" 

added configurations:
Temperature to monitor    "filespace.temperature-monitor"
File size to monitor           "filespace.temperature-monitor-size"



* Exemption list to define the "UNDEF" file extensions

Filespace can now logs of all extensions that are not defined in filename_win.
Exception list can be found in $INSTALL_DIR\temp



* Storage Analyzer uses Logical size as the Physical Size.

This patch contains the fix for FileSpace, it will now get the correct Physical size to produce
accurate reports.



* Fix empty Domain and Account data.

FileSpace reports show that it failed to filter not accounted folders causing it to have an <empty>
fields in  Domain and Account. This patch fixes this issue.



* FileSpace checks all directories.

FileSpace checks all directories instead of locations that are configured in filespace_win.conf.
This patch fixes this issue.



* FileSpace failed to get groupname. 

FileSpace in windows did not get the groupname and was default to 'undef'. This patch will fix the
collection of groupname.

Note: This patch requires Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable 2005 x86 v8.0.6 installed on client
machine to work properly because Filespace uses OpenMP Support for parallelization.
