delete events automatically

Post by blob84 »

Hello, I want to delete old events automatically,
I tried the PurgeWhenFull filter and when the disk is at % doesn' work or it seems because the disk usage will not change, but this also happens when i delete events from the windows "events" , from the windows "monitor" it works.

Set up purgewhenfull to delete by date; forums contain many examples just search for "purgewhenfull by date"

Hello blob84,

Read this post: http://www.zoneminder.com/forums/viewto ... 29&t=19401

Records are deleted by a ZoneMinder deamon in the background and so.. it takes a while before you see the change value "disk usage"change.

Kind regards, Christo
