Audit process not deleting old images, maybe not even running?

Post by magarity »

I have the 'run audit' checked on in the config screen with a time of 14400 (4 hours) but after doing quick delete yesterday of a month's worth of captures it has yet to delete any of the associated images by today, 18 hours later. What might I not have set correctly? My configuration is two RPi's recently updated to 1.34.10, The ZM shared mariadb is on A and the images are on a completely separate NAS. A is checked off to 'run audit' in 'servers' screen while B is not. How can I manually kick off the audit process if the automatic scheduling doesn't work?

We do NOT recommend running zmaudit.

It will go away from the config in 1.35./1.36.

If you want to run it manually after a crash, go ahead. Or run it from cron on weekends or something.

If you are storing events on another device you need a separate filter for that device. And do not do fast delete!
