Custom montage killing my ZM server

I am testing ZM 1.25.0 on Ubuntu 12.04.2 64-bit. This is a custom build my boss made but neither of us have much linux knowledge. My server is running two AMD quad-core Opteron's with 4 GB DDR2 memory and 4.5TB of storage from four 1.5TB drives in RAID-5 on a HighPoint RocketRaid 2320. I have 16 cam...

Re: camera streams 30 seconds behind realtime

I have this problem on a specific model of Toshiba indoor camera... The only way I could fix it was to set the FPS on the camera itself, and set the FPS for that camera in ZM to blank, or null, just don't put in anything. Give that a try...

Re: Servers crashing, out of memory, kills process

I spent over an hour on the net trying to find info on how to configure my SHMALL and SHMMAX and didn't have any luck. I really have a poor understanding of this so i'm afraid to start changing things without having a reasonable idea of what it will do. Is there any guides out there that someone her...

Re: Servers crashing, out of memory, kills process

Thanks for the responses guys... I think I may have the SHMALL/SHMMAX configured incorrectly. Is there any specific recommendations that works well with ZM? Does anyone have a specific recommendation on these settings that is working well for them on a setup similar to mine? My servers are running t...

Servers crashing, out of memory, kills process

I already posted this in the Previous Versions forum, but that place is a ghost town, and I don't think this problem is specific to the version of ZM so i'm going to post it here as well. I have five servers running Ubuntu 8.04 LTS Server x64 and ZM 1.23.3. Each server records 16 cameras 24/7. A few...

Servers crashing, out of memory, kills process - ZM 1.23.3

I have five servers running Ubuntu 8.04 LTS Server x64 and ZM 1.23.3. Each server records 16 cameras 24/7. Two of my servers are crashing fairly often, 3-5 times a week due to out of memory error. The process that gets killed is typically mysqld (or something), but sometimes its a ZM process. When t...

Expanding RAID-5 volume that events are stored on

I posted this in the 1.23.3 section because thats what i'm running, but it seems a ghost town. This question probably applies to multiple versions so I figured i'd ask here for more chances of a response. I have a standard build with 4x 1.5 TB drives in RAID-5 on a hardware controller which is used ...

Expanding RAID-5 volume that events are stored on

I have a standard build of 4x 1.5 TB drives in RAID-5 on a hardware controller which is used only to record events to. Unfortunately I forgot I only had 3 drives in the server, resulting in lower capacity. I've been recording on it for a few weeks now and noticed I wasn't getting as much video as I ...

auto-execute of filters that were imported from SQL backup

I did a search for this but couldn't find anything. Sorry if this is a repost maybe i'm just not wording my search right. Anyway, onto my problem... I have a script to import my cameras and filters from a SQL backup when I reload a server. One of the filters is the PurgeWhenFull which is set to run ...
