Hard Drive Space

Post by kvincench »

Approximately how much space is zoneminder operating system supposed to take up without any events in the database or archives. I have all the events cleared by using fast delete and all the trash emptied and i still have 24% of the disk space used up..i cant see how this is possible.

zm as an app is quite light.
However depending on your distro then you might have 4-8 gig used by the os
