Hi!

When does the purgewhenfull-filter get called?
Do I have to call zmaudit.pl via cron to tidy up anyway or does it also get automagically called?

Thanks for your ansers

PS: Ereignis (german, event in english) is correct, not Ereigniß

if you show filter window and select purge when full you should see a disk percent entry you can modify. When set press save and select automatically delete.
ZM audit runs anyway to tidy up and doesnt need to be added to cron.
You can select how often the filters run in options.

Allow me to elaborate abit.
The purge when full filter is setup with some default values so that the filter is run as 99% disk space used. jIt is set to do nothing though, you have to select the filter, save it, and you will be given the option window where it asks you what you want to happen when this filter is run. Check Automatically delete all matches:
and save again. now when this filter is reached it will make some room. Tune as needed.
