HDD-Space

Hello
How can you limit the period to be stored in which the events?
Or you can specify a time period after which the oldest events are deleted?

Set up a filter similar to "purge when full" using a time period.

This is not something to develop a work around on. Create a new filter using the same settings except for the % disk (use time function), save and tick run in background. Both filters will run at the same time but only yours will ever do anything or you could simply delete the purgewhenfull filter but I'd let it run as a safety at least until you know yours is working.

The Problem is that the MySQL-Database are empty but the HDD full!
There are no Events in the Database but the Events are saved on the HDD!
I use a NFS-Server! My last test to install a Zoneminder-Installation on the Zonminder-Debian-Server and the same install on the NFS-Server! I think its better for the userrights on both. On the NFS-Server is the Zominder-Server off. I can delete the Events over the zm-console manually but there aren't events. I dont understand the Problem! I export direct the images and the events! There are 3,7 TB Data in the event-folder, but only 6 continued events in the Database/zm-console!

Can anyone help me?
