<br>To summarize a program just autoexpired, and I don't think it should have.<br>The logs showed when the program was scheduled it wants 0 MiB free, but it actually expired the program with about 2GB free. And that is the way it worked prior to Storage Groups. What this means to this particular setup is I'll be autoexpiring stuff when I have plenty of space in the Default storage group available via NFS. From what I understand of the storage groups it shouldn't have done that, it should have recorded the programs on one of the NFS partitions since the local disk is almost full. <br>
<br>Would changing the amount of space the backend is supposed to keep open help with this issue, or will it still be off?<br><br>With 2 tuners in one box and 1 in the other, how does one choose an amount of space to be left free without knowing the length of the recordings ahead of time? ie I don't want to leave 12.2GB free because I might record a two hour program on NG and a movie at the same time.<br>
<br>Prior to storage groups I used a couple myth_archive.pl jobs to move the files after recording. This was fairly easy to keep some space available without autoexpiring what I wanted to keep in part because a perl and bash script which listed where the actual programs resided. Perhaps it's because I am not undertanding Storage Groups as much as I like, but it seems its just making things more complicated and I was hoping it would be more automated and easier to keep track of things through the frontend and/or mythweb. <br>
<br>What would make it easier to keep track of things?<br><br>2008-03-16 03:27:29.610 'Taboo' will record in '/lvm/home/mythtv/store' which has 2935 MiB free. This recording could use a max of 2307 MiB and the AutoExpirer wants to keep 0 MiB free.<br>
