Filters: total disk space used?

Post by maxiedaniels »

It seems 'disk space' in the filters equates to the space used for each event. I'd like to delete events if the *total* space by all events goes over a certain amount... is this possible?

I have no idea how you came to that conclusion.
The default purge when full filter, that ships with ZoneMinder, does exactly what you are asking.
Visit my blog for ZoneMinder related projects using the Raspberry Pi, Orange Pi, Odroid, and the ESP8266

I tested the disk space filter, which seems to relate to the size of an individual event..

The purge when full filter uses disk percent, not disk space. Disk percent I can't use because I'm not using a dedicated drive so disk percent isn't relevant. (I'm using StorageAreas)
