Configuration - Content Management
Drilling down into one of the numbered segment directories will show video content and manifest files
similar to the following:
Based on the parameters you set up in
“CR Storage Parameters” on page 109
, the CR automatic
content deletion mechanism will determine whether the content files are asset-based or unreferenced.
For CR, deletion occurs at the segment directory level (unlike manual EBR deletion where deletion
occurs at the schedule/name level). Using the example above, if any of the .ts or .m3u8 files are
associated with an asset, the entire segment directory one level up (for example, the directory named
“
20141018T014948”)
will either be preserved or deleted depending on how the age parameters were
configured.
In other words, everything in red below will either be deleted or preserved, and everything in black will
never be deleted (unless done so manually on the storage server itself):
