Hello!
I'm running 1.23.0, and I have been trying to configure the PurgeWhenFull filter - but I can't figure out how to do. I've read som about it here on the forum but I can't find the options I should use, see the screenshot below.
Thanks for any help, Boppen!

I found that to... How are you running it? Mine is Peter's debs... Anyway, open up the filter window fresh, and leave it on "choose filter." Add a second line. Now make it look like this.
Code: Select all
Archive Status = Unarchived Only
and Disk Percent >= 90
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sort by ID Asc limite to first 50
Then check "delete" and save as PurgeWhenFull and run in background.

You may also want to make sure you add the condition of not being archived, as well. Unless you don't care if archived events are blown away.
Fix should be soon

See
http://www.zoneminder.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=11034 for detail. You can take patch from there.
I think the fix is going to show up in next release. Meanwhile it may be much easier to create xPurgeWhenFull by hand. After all it is just another filter script which triggers when 95% of disk is full.

That was the first line, by the way.

OOPS, yeah, I misread the copy/paste. My bad.
Point still stands, though...think of it as reenforcing the obvious.
