Wrong disk space displayed in system info
Newly setup Sage 6.
Has one recordings directory: V:\SageRecordings Sage's System Information displays grossly wrong numbers, why? "Used Video Disk Space:" 51.7GB. MS Explorer says the folder contains 181GB Two possible causes 1. Wiz.bin was copied from another Sage (v5) PC and the video files from 3 D:, E: and F: on the other PC were copied to V:SageRecordings. Then D:, E: and F: were disconnected. At this point, Wiz.bin seemed OK and all the recordings seemed to be consolidated in V:SageRecordings. But could the database be inconsistent causing the wrong numbers, above? Or are the numbers, above, calculated in some other manner than via wiz.bin? 2. V: is a RAID 1 mirror in hardware. Transparent to applications. MS Explorer has the correct numbers. The RAID pair has two partitions: V: which is about 450GB and C: which is about 50GB. Unlikely, but could this be the cause? Last edited by stevech; 09-15-2007 at 12:22 AM.

I had the same problem after a clean install. Turned out that I had used a non-UNC path (V:\....) for the recording directory in the previous install but in the new I had specified a UNC path.
When I changed the path back to v:\... the problem went away. I hope you can use this info. rtengvad

I am not 100% certain what Sage displays as used disk space, but if it does not include partial recordings that exists on the drive that could account for the difference. I know it did comparing with the web server program for me.

Also, the discrepancy is much too large to be caused by partial recordings.

Any of your recordings showing up in imported videos?
The used disk space portion is all disk space used by Sage recordings, no matter where they are on the disk.
