ZoneMinder Forums

I almost returned my WVC80N because of the erratic and unusable software, but since I do like the minimal wires, I remembered zoneminder and wondered if I could get the camera talking to it and capturing motion detection.

Works great! Since I've noticed it is maxing out the single vCPU, I'm wondering if I can simply add another virtual core, or will I have create a new virtual server, reinstall debian + zm.

I'd appreciate your thoughts, and of course I am going to try it out and see what happens.

Ok, that was too easy. It was as simple as shutting down the server, adding another vCPU in XenServer, boot back up. I watched the resources while recording and play back, performance is much better, no longer 95% CPU

ZoneMinder rocks so far. Now to figure out email notification...
