How to delete recordings automatic ?

Post by Taz »

Hi guys,

I need to know how to setup it to automatic delete recordings ?

I want to keep these files at least for 5 or 6 days, but i just want to delete the old ones, not all files.

I saw under filters, the option PurgeWhenFull and i set it to:

Date / Equal to / -3 day / and / Disk Percent / Equal or greater than / 90

is it correct ???

Thanks

Taz

The filter you have defined will delete events when they are older than 3 days AND the disk percent is over 90%. So both have to occur before anything will be deleted. This may be what you want but if you want one or the other you need to use OR and not AND.

Thanks for the answer Phil,

Thanks again,
