From Idrive

We have been alerted by our system that your HDD storage is becoming low. In order for the system to continue to function smoothly, you need to clear off some event data. If the full HDD causes an OS failure, this is not an Idrive Supported repair.

Please look at the Auto Delete option, and create a policy for automatic HDD clearing of events.

We suggest a few things: From the idrive Control Center software; Go to Settings>Admin Settings>and select the tab Automatically Delete Events

  • Check the box to Delete events older than (30, 60, 180 or whatever you choose)
  • Make a selection to keep Locked and /or Scored Events (and subsequently levels of Scored Events)
  • If you need them archived, select the box for “Backup”
    • This will allow the system to create a backup event either full size or compressed and send it to an external HDD or Network HDD to alleviate filling up this HDD
    • If you choose, you can plug in a USB HDD or eSata HDD so as not to use network resources
  • If you choose to back up to a network drive and it requires Windows Active Directory and/or Peer to peer network sign in, you can place those credentials in the boxes as necessary
