Storage Management in Cesbo Alta
Esta página aún no está disponible en tu idioma.
Configure Alta to store OTT archives on the local filesystem.
UI Navigation: Go to Settings → Storages → Create

Parameters:
- Duration: Total archive duration (in hours).
This value can be overridden for individual channels in their properties.
- Location: Absolute path to the archive directory on the server.
Data Storage Details:
Alta stores archive segments in MPEG-TS format at:
<location>/<channel-path>/<variant-name>
Each channel and variant has its own directory structure for easy management.
Storage Common Settings:

- The Settings button, located next to the Create button, opens the Storage Common Settings dialog.
- In this dialog, you can configure the Disk Space Threshold (MB) to define when a low disk space warning is triggered.
- When available disk space falls below the specified threshold:
-
All channels with recording enabled automatically switch to circular mode.
-
Older data is deleted as new data is recorded, constrained by the remaining available space.
-
The archive size for each channel may vary:
- For channels running continuously, the archive may retain the full intended duration (e.g., 24 hours) if space permits.
- For newly started channels, only the most recent data up to the threshold may be retained (e.g., 10 hours).
-
If free disk space increases, the archive size for each channel can expand accordingly.
