Hello,

I am having trouble with the PurgeWhenFull filter. Is the filter working with Network Shares? I have a CIFS share mounted to /media/zm and the events and images directories mounted to it like so:
The CIFS share is on my NAS and the space is limited to 100GB via quota. This seems to work, because when the quota limit is reached, ZoneMinder log says

Can't mkdir events/6/16/04/05/19/40: No space left on device

My problem is that the PurgeWhenFull does not seem to work. Does it only check the local (unix system) disk? Can anyone help figure out why my events are not being purged?

Thanks in advance!

I think this may be a problem with the way I mounted it. I gave the CIFS share a quota of 100GB, but when I execute df-h, the Ubuntu vm sees the whole NAS device capacity:

Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
//IP/sec/zm 2.7T 1.8T 954G 66% /media/zm

Any ideas?

Yeah the purgewhenfull uses df to find out if the fs is full. It does not look at quotas.
