I currently have 9 Amcrest IP8M-2493EB with continuous 4K H265 stream going to a FN 11.3 server with a single 8 terrabyte HD
Currently i am using NFS to direct stream the video feed directly to the FreeNas box which is working perfectly fine
Eventually i will run out of space and im not quite sure what to do about it
Amcrest has an Storage > Record Control > Disk full > Overwrite, so i am not really worried from the Amcrest but i dont know how Freenas will behave once it hits 100% full
At most i only really need like 3 days worth but this is enough to hold a couple weeks.
QUESTION #1
How do i make sure FreeNas doesnt die when i hit max storage in my dataset and my cameras seamlessly begins to overwrite old video files
I was thinking about just setting my quota for the data set to around 65%
but
according to Cyberjock even if the pool is half empty if i fill my dataset in the pool to maximum i cant do anything else with the dataset... is this accurate?

quota and refquota best practice
I'm currently playing with the quota ("Quota for this dataset and all children" in the GUI) and refquota ("Quota for this dataset" in the GUI) properties to achieve the following goals: 1) The underlying pool (used for several datasets) should never get full. 2) The creation of snapshots should...
