PurgeWhenFull with multiple storage areas

Post by MartyNZ »

Ubuntu 18.04 ZM 1.32.3. Been using ZM since 1.30 and still learning.
Recently upgraded to two storage areas - 1TB SSD, 4TB SATA (aka Beaker)
Both are recording, play back fine and work with filters to display the correct events.
However when I setup a "purgewhenfull" filter for each storage area there is only 1 "Disk Percent" item which I suspect is for the first storage area displayed in the frontend GUI. When the filter runs for the first storage (1TB SSD), which is often full, it applies a purge to BOTH storage areas. The second storage area never exceeds ~16%. Given the 1TB Disk Percent value is "true" the purge is applied to both storage areas filters.

I suspect the "Disk Percent" item needs to be reworked to be specific to a storage area drives or am I missing something? I read elsewhere I could use dates instead to filter and purge each storage area by working out how much I can store on a disk drive but that seems limiting given an unknown number of events over time and that disk space is already known.

Anyone know of a fix or workaround for this or is writing and calling a custom script required? Thanks
