---------------------- CRITICAL ERRORS END HERE ----------------------

Every night at 21h00 AMETHYST will auto archive. If any errors archiving it will send out an critical e-mail. The first step is to make a backup of the AMETHYST database and then the recordings.

Check the size of the database - refer to topic:
How do I check the size of my database?

This critical e-mail means there was not enough space to archive the AMETHYST database to the archive or AMETHYST drive. To confirm log into AMETHYST webadmin and select 'Available Diskspace' from the Home page. It will list all the drive and you can check the space available for the archive drive. For more details see:
How do I check disk space available on AMETHYST server?

You need to make archive space available.

You have 3 archive options:

1. USB Archive drive
2. NFS or Windows Share
