Disk space...

Post by blaxer »

I did search for this I promise, didn't come up with anything which might be my searching skills, easy question though, I think. What happens when ZM runs out of disk space? I'm hoping it will just overwrite the earliest events???

TIA!

This should get you going.
If your useing a single drive (not dedicated for events) you don't want it to fill up and should have atleast 5%. If it fills you will find the machine unresponcive.
