Monitor disk drives

The Drives screen lists drives managed by disk manager. You can also view thresholds for any alarms (to be triggered, for example, if a drive is running low on space).

Only one of the listed drives contains the call buffer. The call buffer drive is the only drive from which the disk manager deletes old files. Generally, the threshold should be set at 10 percent or 10 GB, whichever is higher, so that amount of hard disk space is always free.

The threshold recommendation for the disk manager in V15.2 accounts for text and video recordings that were not supported in previous releases.

Procedure

Click General Setup > Disk Management > Drives.
To monitor a drive, select the Monitor check box. An alarm is raised when the threshold is reached (enter a value for the Threshold as well).
Type a threshold (in megabytes) for each drive. When disk space on the drive reaches the threshold size, it triggers an alarm. (Optional.) To edit this field, you must enable the Monitor option.
Click Save.
