I really miss a function to retrieve the free disk space on a MySQL server.
Previously this was not a problem since a ran PHP and MySQL on the same server, but
for performance reasons i split them.
However, there seems no function to get the free disk space automatically via MySQL,
so a 'intelligent' application or script cannot decide wether or not to store data
depending on free file space (note: this may be huge amounts of data so it is quite
sensefull).
Only workaround I though of is installing PHP on the mysql server as well :(((
Anybody knows a nice workaround?
