Issue with years of storage projection

Post by grwkak »

So recently I decided to implement the deletion of per minute data after a year. When I activated this in my system, I got an odd storage projection. It was something less than 10 years now it says:

Storage: WD SLC, 7.1 GB total, 5.9 GB free (18% used, 4115.6 yrs)

This has persisted through reboots and updates.

Is this a bug of some sort? It's not a huge deal, just curious.

Just let it operate a few days, it should show reasonable values then.

Unfortunately this has been going on for several weeks and shows no signs of changing.

This is calculated by watching the increase of capacity usage over the days and put into perspective to the total storage available.

When you have processes running (chart generation, etc) which produce content that consumes space or if you are deleting items from local storage then the calculation Meteobridge does will of course be impacted.
