Undersized PC?
Posted: Tue Oct 07, 2014 6:13 pm
I installed zoneminder 1.26.5 on a Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU 1007U @ 1.50GHz with 4GB RAM.
I'm experiencing several issues. A couple of examples:
- even if in the montage page I see that a camera status switches from idle to alarm, no alarm events are recorded
- motion events that have 0.0 seconds duration.
Since I never used zoneminder before, I probably have not configured it properly yet. However I first would like to verify if the PC it runs on provides enough horsepower. According to console page, load is constantly below 2. This should be fine since my processor integrates two cores. On the other side I have problems that seems to be unrelated and this looks like the "Bad Things happen" case described here: http://www.zoneminder.com/wiki/index.php/Managing_Load.
I connected 3 Ubiquiti Networks AirCam cameras:
- 640 x 368 @ 3 fps (2)
- 320 x 176 @ 3 fps.
Do you think the PC is actually undersized?
If yes, which processor do you think fits my configuration?
Thank you very much in advance.
