disk metrics in BI android app

[scottf]

In the menu of the BI android app, down at the bottom it has the following info:

Servername
----------------------------
Clips: 485 files, 1.32T/3.53T
D: +60:9G, G: +46.3G
Version 3.62.06
CPU 30% mem 1.17G up 0:15:33:36

My question is, what are the disk metrics referring to (D: +60:9G, G: +46.3G)? Obvioulsy these are the drive letters, but what does +60.9G mean? Is that capacity utilized in the last x time interval?

That is probably the amount of space used by all clips/alerts on each drive. Should be easy to verify by looking at folder properties in Windows.

It's much smaller than the amount of space used by all clips on each drive. For example on the D drive I am useing about 1.3 TB for clips at the moment.

Well mine says C: +14.8G, D: +4.26T. I can't make any sense of the numbers either.

Things it is NOT anywhere close to:

* amount of space used on the drive
* amount of space used by clips
* amount of free space on the drive
* amount of free space for clips (which can be controlled by a quota)
* amount of clip data written or deleted in any period of time

....


As I wrote that the D: changed to +4.27T. I am at this time moving all my Blue Iris clips off my degraded RAID 5 to a new NAS, with all recording disabled in BI for the time being...



My guess is it is supposed to be the free disk space but it is bugged.

I received a response from BU support:

It is the "extra" space on the drive over and above what's required by Blue Iris ... as set on Options/Clips.

Ok, that would make more sense. Thanks for checking on that.
