How to delete all events when disk is 100% full?

Post by doakwolf »

Hi all,

My disk is 100% full and even though I've gone in and deleted ALL events from my two cameras, it still says it's full. I've just setup a filter to archive events at 95% disk useage (following the guide in the FAQ) but it doesn't seem to be working just yet. Here is the message I get in ZM (browsing remotely from Windows XP / IE)

Warning: Unknown(): write failed: No space left on device ( 28 ) in Unknown on line 0

Warning: Unknown(): Failed to write session data (files). Please verify that the current setting of session.save_path is correct (/tmp) in Unknown on line 0


Any tips?

Cheers,
Doak.

if zm is stopped it wont 'clean up' after itself. You need to free a small amount. Id navigate to where your images are stored and delete a few events manually
