How to purge old events

Post by rchurch »

I want to reclaim space by purging events in the database which are a certain number of days old.

If I delete them directly from the events database, will ZoneMinder check the frames database and the file system and get rid of the records and directories later?

Hi,

You can easily do that automatically by using filters.
