Hi,
I have 6 IP camera configured in Mocord. I record 7 days and with a filter I delete older recordings.
What it happen is that for only a couple of camera, some events missing.
Whay I mean is that I record event of 10 minutes, so what I expect is 6 event per hour and 144 event per day.
Sometime i have less event.
I checked the event list and what i can see is that sometime event do not end at 10 minutes but before.
In occurence with a recording truncatet, i found this in the logs:
Code: Select all
02/13/2017 01:14:12.421266 zmwatch[22422].INF [Analysis daemon for IPCAM05-Sala-REC needs restarting, time since last analysis 9 seconds (1486944852-1486944843)]
02/13/2017 01:14:16.929391 zmwatch[22422].INF [Restarting analysis daemon for IPCAM05-Sala-REC]
after this 2 logline @ 01:14:17 my recording stop and start a new one.
I cannot understand why this happen, only on this camera that is configured and same model of others.
Here an Example, for IPCAM05 I have less event than other:
- Event count
- 2017-02-13 14_50_42-ZM - Console.jpg (16.47 KiB) Viewed 4219 times
Many thanks for help
Marco

You are running in a vm? Check that the tmpfs is not running out of space. Lower the resolution and frame rate at the camera. May also fix your other problem.

Hi
bbunge,
this is my disk space:
Code: Select all
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
udev 1.5G 0 1.5G 0% /dev
tmpfs 303M 33M 271M 11% /run
/dev/sda1 78G 2.9G 71G 4% /
tmpfs 1.5G 264M 1.3G 18% /dev/shm
tmpfs 5.0M 0 5.0M 0% /run/lock
tmpfs 1.5G 0 1.5G 0% /sys/fs/cgroup
/dev/sdb1 459G 348G 111G 76% /mnt/localStorage
tmpfs 303M 0 303M 0% /run/user/0
it seems tempfs is not running out of space.
Some other detail on my server. I have a dedicated HDD for saving video, is not a virtual disk, but a raw device connected to VM, so this unload VirtualDisk where OS is running. My server have 4 CPU and average load is 0,70.
I run 6 camera @640x480, but also @320x240 I have this behaviour. Framerate is 5 fps.
If this should be a server performance issue, I expect that happen on all camera randomly and not only on specific camere, and only that.
For other issue, in other post, it happen always on one camera.
Regards
Marco

Lost connection to the camera is what springs to my mind immediately, loses connection, restarts camera = new event. If connection lost for longer time then events for the day would less than other cameras.

Hi,
it make sense. I have just in my mind the idea to return camera to Foscam, and I think this could be an options.
Thanks

First try swapping two cameras around, i.e. move them to each others location. If issue follows then it is camera, if not then it is cable. And if you tell me it is wireless then that is the problem.

Hi Steve,
my camera is just under warranties, and Amazanon refound me. With a little gap of mony I can purchase a better model.
My mind is to replace all camera with new model, but just to be sure, I'll swap 2 camera as you suggest.
Regards
Marco

Hi,
i keep situation monitored.
It seems that continous recording stop and restart, when a cam detect lots ov movement. I don't know if this is cause due camera fails due lot o data to be trasmitted or ZM fail to handler the data too.
Here is the logs for last occurence:
